There is a switch in setting center that allows you to turn off misspelled

words and grammatical error messages but it didn't stop the messages when I used the arrow keys to go up/down line at a time. I had to go into the word options and turned off the automatic spelling and grammar while typing. Alt+f, (file) Press the letter T for options Go down to proofing Then tab across until you hear 'check spelling while you type' uncheck this Tab twice more until you hear 'correct grammar while you type' uncheck this Tab to ok Larry

Re: how to remove avast
Mike B <mb69mach1@...>
The Avast removal tool used to be accessible,
but the last 2 times I tried to use it, it didn't work like it did in the
past. I needed for my wife to do the removal for me. Below are the
steps for when it was accessible if you want to try them. Read the steps
thoroughly first. Also, below is the direct download link for the
tool.
1. Press enter on
the, AvastClear, .EXE file.
2. You will get
the following message:
Avast Antivirus
Clear
It is recommended to run this tool from Windows Safe Mode. Do you want to do that? Press "Yes" to reboot into Safe Mode now and run this tool from there. Press "No" to continue running this tool as it is (not recommended). Yes No 3. Tab to the, No
button, & press enter or spacebar. Now press the spacebar on the,
Uninstall button, to start the uninstall process as Administrator. After
Avast is uninstalled you should get a prompt to restart the computer. When
the computer reboots you can check to see if any remnants of the program are
left behind. The 1 time I used this removal tool the only remnant I found
left behind was an Avast folder in the Program Files, & Program Data folders
on the root of the C drive, but I did not check the
registry.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Go dodgers! No one has more to say than the woman who says she doesn't want to talk about it.

There is a registry patch for 7 and XP to have

Re: Printing An Envelope, Microsoft Says

I’m going to use the optacon to check my work.
I was thinking you were saying to created the addresses in the original word doc, then bring up the mailer tab, and the addresses would automatically be positioned correctly.
Before, I’ve tried bringing up the mailer tab first, then typing in the addresses but never got that to work, same with trying to create a sheet of labels. That’s why I gave up and started downloading what I needed from Avery.

The trick to printing an envelope is knowing which way to feed the envelope into your printer. Word gets information from your printer and shows you the right feed option.
list of 3 items 1. Go to Mailings > Envelopes, and enter delivery and return addresses.
2. Place the blank envelope in the printer tray, according to the diagram in the Feed box.
3. Select Print. list end So obviously if your printer is new, you may have to have sighted assistance to see how the envelope should be inserted. My HP has a dedicated envelope tray. The envelope goes in flap-side down and on the left. After that and especially if you’re using a standard envelope, 4 X 10 I think it is, Word should be able to print it properly without doing anything else. There is an options button if you keep tabbing and a combo box to choose another size. Some printers have a dedicated button to print the envelope after you’ve pressed the print button. Others don’t and you may have a continue button in a dialog box that appears on the screen. Depending on what has focus, you may have to alt-tab to get to it. I haven’t done it in a while, but I think just pressing alt-c worked. You may have to play with it to see how yours works.

Re: Filling out an envelope
Judy Jones <sonshines59@...>
Hi, Ron, this is Judy.
Very sorry, but I am not remembering you from other than the e-mail lists. I am from out west, originally Colorado Springs.
I was a “ham” a long time ago with WN0CGG while I was growing up, but we moved overseas with my Air Force father, and I had to give it up, as we lived in West Germany’s buffer zone.
Regarding the envelope, it will depend on your printer instructions, but I am guessing that the envelope would go in on the top of the printer tray lid, just inside those adjustable pieces. It will probably go flap down and guessing again, lengthwise.
You’ll have to give it a try. I am going to do the same, just for fun, haven’t tried it with our new laser printer. I usually type all our envelopes.
Even at work, no one learned how to use our fancy-dancy printer/faxer/copier to do envelopes, and we all just typed them on our office’s IBM Selectric 2.
None of us ever thought of trying Becky’s idea of typing in a word doc first, and letting the mailings tab place the addresses properly. None of us knew to do that.
I should employ her technique also when creating labels. We all just pulled up the mailings tab, then typed in the information, and it never worked. I gave up and started downloading from Avery.
Thanks Becky!
Hope this works for you, Ron, and let us know how it goes.

I have Word 2010, not 2016, so I don’t know if this will work for you. If I want to print an envelope, I find it easiest to type the information in a blank document. The return address goes at the top, not indented, then the delivery address several lines below, again not indented. When I go to the mailings tab and then to envelopes, everything is already filled in, in the proper places. I have the envelope inserted into the printer and all I have to do is tab until I get to print. Some printers have an actual physical button to press to start the printer and sometimes there’s a continue button on the screen which you may have to alt-tab to. Someone may have to show you the first time just to make sure the envelope is inserted as it should be and to make sure it printed properly.

Hi Gerald,
Another program that you could run
is, Stascom. It will tell you when the computer is starting and shutting
down amongst many other features. One of its features is Maximizing
targeted windows.
From: Richard Turner
Program features list of 18 items • Battery status on laptops is reported automatically while disconnected from charger, while charging, or both. The notification intervals are configured in the Configuration Manager. As can be expected, this feature and associated options are hidden on desktop computers; • Contact Manager, including yearly customisable audio and text birthday reminders for listed contacts. Alert options are either audio and text, text only, or disabled. If set to audio and text, the audio alert will be repeated after 15 minutes (by default), if a reminder is not acknowledged. The interval can be changed to half hourly, hourly, or disabled in Configuration Manager. This module is mainly for the benefit of users who do not have access to a smartphone, or possibly those who prefer the flexibility and simplicity of the Stascom alternative. The current version does not feature importing contacts from an external file source such as csv; • Reminder Manager with audio and text alerts, with optional repetitions on a future date. Audio alert sound can be changed if desired. The same customisable options as with birthday reminders, are available. See above; • Calculate day of the week for any date between 1 January 1601 and 31 December 9999; • Maximises application windows automatically. Window title exceptions can be specified ; • Prevents mute status on default sound card automatically. Recovery volume is configurable; • Low volume correction on default sound card (disabled by default). Minimum and normalise levels are configurable; • Two schedules and output percentage for automatic volume adjustment can be specified (disabled by default); • Password Generator, creating a unique, very strong 10 character password with each keystroke. Generated password can be copied to clipboard optionally; • Time announcements on the
hour, half hour and quarter hour. Individual hours can be specified,
or disabled altogether. Custom audio chimes are optional
if preferred over the included sound clips; • Accented and other special characters can be easily inserted with hot keys; • Alphabetical list of 51 Windows applications and settings quickly accesseible with a hot key; • master volume level increased / decreased by 5% with hot keys, ascending / descending tones to indicate the volume adjustment; • Word count for selected text in commonly used editors and browsers, with an option to place the result on the Windows clipboard. This feature is not supported in some editors and e-mail clients with non-standard cursors. The results are more accurate than in most similar packages, as it ignores all punctuation and special characters; • Program configuration can be reset to installation defaults; • Report generator, providing a summary of program settings and system information in HTML format for easy navigation; • Choice of three sets of modifier keys to use with Stascom hotkeys. A bypass key suspends Stascom hotkeys for five seconds. Should the user wish to disable the home row 1 to 0 hotkeys altogether, this can be done under the general category in Configuration Manager. If these keys are disabled, all options can still be accessed through the program dashboard, activated with modifier+backslash. • list end Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Go dodgers!

Re: JAWS Shutdown Sound
Richard Turner <richardturner42@...>
Do you have fast startup checked? That may nullify the sound settings.
Those comparing other screen readers exit sounds with Jaws, as Rick I think it was, pointed out, Jaws says something about exiting since the screen reader is dumped before the system finishes shutting down.
I have had situations where something else was blocking shut down, so even if Jaws or anything else had a sound, it wouldn't have helped.
Hence my method of checking the CD drive, or if no CD drive, then plugging in a usb device might get a sound.
The bottom line here is that only Freedom Scientific can say if a shut down sound can be added via script, or anything else.
Just my opinion.

question downloading Office 365
Van Lant, Robin
I currently have an old copy of Office 2010 that I installed from a CD. I’m thinking of moving to the subscription to Office 365. I’ve heard a couple of you mentioned cloud based office products. If I purchase the Office 365 subscription from the Microsoft store, is it a given that I can download local copies of the Office products to run on my computer? I’m just a bit confused on this aspect. It seems that JAWS runs better and I’m certainly more comfortable with having local copies of Office. Is there a reason people wouldn’t install it locally?
Running Win10 and latest JAWS 2019.

Re: JAWS Shutdown Sound
Glenn / Lenny
When I shut down the computer with NVDA running, I
hear the NVDA unload sound, and if I did not exit NVDA, that means the computer
is shutting down.

Subject: Re: [jaws-users] JAWS Shutdown Sound You are making a comparison of the operating system versus an application. Jaws and Openbook are both applications,and if neither are running at the time Windows shuts down, you would still not have any indication that Windows is doing so. So, adding a shutdown sound to Jaws would not be a reliable indicator. On my systems, when I execute a shutdown command , Jaws notifies me that Windows is shutting down and I am about to be logged out. HTH, Rick Justice "Tomorrow's another day, another way!"

There's no way I'm hacking the registry just to get a shutdown sound.?? This isn't rocket science.?? If Open Book can have a shutdown sound, there is no reason why JAWS can't, either.
