RE: Seeking help with JAWS

Sounds like you could also have function lock enabled (where the FN key is automatically toggled so the F-key functions work without having to press and hold it simultaneously).

I would Google your device model and see if there are steps to disable function lock.

Thanks,
J

Subject: Seeking help with JAWS

Hi all, JAWS commands are being ignored on my laptop. Rather than recognizing JAWS key+F6 to open a list of headers, it triggers the volume control on the F6 key. I'm afraid I accidentally turned off JAWS commands. Can anyone please help

Hi all,

I'm afraid I accidentally turned off JAWS commands. Can anyone please help me restore them?
