I don't know why anyone would prefer to navigate with the number pad, it's a longer reach than the four arrow keys.

Yes, you don’t need a numb pad the lap top keyboard is easy to use and learn. In fact I much prefer it . You can do most selections without moving your fingers from the keyboard home typing

I had no intention of learning laptop layout when I switched to JAWS. However, if memory serves correctly, I want to use caps lock as an alternative JAWS key and this did not work as I wanted it to

Moving Email In WLM
Win 10
Latest Jaws

To move an email to a folder in WLM, I use ctrl shift V. Neither Jaws nor Window Eyes will read the list of folders.
Any ideas?
