Hello Duane,

I have not yet installed the latest Jaws update.  A few days ago when I played Wordle on Chrome, Chrome was not announcing the results of my entry.  I hit enter several times with no luck.  I closed Chrome & reopened it & still nothing.  The word I had entered was displayed but Chrome was not saying if the letters were present, correct or absent.  I did something else for a while & when I came back, Chrome now indicated the status of each letter & when I entered my next word, Chrome immediately announced the result.  This happened a couple days in a row but today Chrome & Wordle worked fine.  So, maybe try waiting a half hour or so & going back to Chrome / Wordle to see if it suddenly is working right again.  Let us know if this works.  I don't want to up[date Jaws if it will ruin playing Wordle - I'm hooked!

Subject: [VICUG-L] I installed the JAWS 2022 update and now accessible Wordle is broken

Hi All,

I installed the latest JAWS 2022 update that popped up when I turned on my computer this morning and rebooted the computer after the install. 
Then I went to the Wordle web site to play the daily word, but the Chrome extension that makes Wordle accessible was no longer working. I managed to play today's word with the help of my sighted spouse, but now I am wondering how to fix this going forward? I thought about removing and reinstalling the Chrome extension, but I don't know if that would make any difference? I am open to all suggestions. It could also be that the two events are unrelated and the problem with Wordle is coincidental to the JAWS install, but I suspect not.

Thanks,
Duane
