Re: alt key inserting while using jaws and outlook classic


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Hello, I am the person having the problem with the alt key.

I am using windows 11 with JAWS 2025 and office 365.

Whenever I use Outlook and respond to a message it triggers the problem.? I press alt s to send a message, sometimes the message does not send and I have to press the delete key to remove the s so it is not inserted into the message.? When I press alt s again, the message sends but then? I have the problem with the alt key.? The computer won¡¯t let me do anything else so I have to reboot but when I press alt f4 and select shutdown and then press the enter key, it says alt enter and I have to do a hard reboot.

Today I closed JAWS and using Narrator and with Narrator the problem disappeared so maybe it is A JAWS problem.

I have spoken to the Microsoft accessibility line for support several times with no results.

Since today I switched to Narrator it seems to work.? Also I am also pressing control enter to send messages in Outlook to see if that helps and will not trigger the alt key.? ?

I hope that maybe if it is a JAWS problem and using Narrator it doesn¡¯t happen I hope the problem has been resolved.? This is a new computer which I have had for only two months, thanks, Judy

What do you mean by "alt key inserting itself"???

?

I presume you mean that the alt key is acting like it's been struck when it has not, but this is not at all clear.

It is much easier to be critical than to be correct.
