Hi Everyone,

 

I am taking an Unix and Linux class in the coming spring semester. I am
trying to figure out the screen reader Orca, and I have found out that it is
quite similar  to Jaws. I am using a virtual machine (VM. The keyboard short
cut for switch between the VM and my regular machine is CTL and Windows key.
The issue that I have is every time when I switch from VM to my regular
machine Jaws thinks that I am press either the control  or the Windows key.
However if I figured out how to restart Jaws, then everything is fixed. I
was wondering is there a way to shut down Jaws besides ault f4, on the task
bar, and minimize the windows and hit J and X to exit Jaws? I tried all of
these, and they do not work, because it thinks one of the keys been pushed.
I also tried to refresh the screen, it still does not work. 

Thanks all, 

Amy
