Hi All,
Wondering if anybody has run into this. I just updated to windows 10 and I am running jaws 17. When I restart my system, Jaws does not announce when is in the logging screen like it did when I was running windows 8. I have to manually give the red line command in order to hear the prompt to enter the password. Any suggestion would be appreciate it.

Subject: [VICUG-L] Putting Shortcuts on the Desktop in Windows 10
Hi all,
A few weeks ago, someone said s/he had trouble putting icons on the Windows 10 desktop. My instructions are below though I'm sure the person has worked things out by now.
* Option 1. Press the Start key, arrow up once to All Apps, press enter, and arrow down to the item you want. Most likely, it'll be a folder, like Office. If it is, press enter to open it, and arrow down to the program. In the case of Office apps (e.g., Word, Outlook), I think you need to press enter on Tools to find it. The point is you want to get to the app you want. don't press enter on it: just arrow to it.
Option 2. Press the Start key, and type the name of the app you want (e.g., word). If necessary, arrow down to the correct item. Again, don't press enter on it: just arrow to it. this option worked for me today, but I know it didn't work for me in the past. I'm not sure if I'm remembering that it didn't work in windows 8.
* Whichever option you used, press the right Windows key, and press enter on Open Location.
* Press the right Windows key again, down-arrow to the Send To submenu, open it by pressing right-arrow once, then down-arrow and press enter on Desktop.
As an FYI, this works only for desktop apps, not for modern/metro apps.
Ciao
