I use them, too, and a couple of years ago, I discovered that Alt+R and Alt+Shift+R work, too. why? Who knows? Lol

Hello:

Isn't the reply command in Outlook control r or control shift r? Those are the key commands I use in Outlook 2019, and they work all the time.

Best regards,

Curtis Chong

Occasionally, when I try to reply all to an email in Outlook 2016, I get a stupid problem.  I do shift R; it opens a reply message, and, when I try to type, it says "Key not available".  It appears to be trying to interpret what I'm typing as commands, instead of text.  It's quite annoying.  The only solution I've found is to close my reply and try again until it finally lets me write my message.  Sometimes it takes several tries.

Does anyone have a better solution, or a way to stop this happening?

I am using Jaws 2020 and Windows 10.

Thanks.

Tracy
