Well, if you've used the keylearn feature in jaws, insert+#1, you will have discovered, the only two keys that will give some information when they're pressed are, the tab key, and the capslock key. the, alt, ctrl, and windows keys no info,

Hi All,
When turning keyboard help on. Is their a way to have JAWS announce the below keys? I perform keyboard assessments with people and during my assessment I would like to make sure they are pressing the correct key. Using JAWS 2019 and Windows 10.

you could always use narrator.
Explore your keyboard Input learning tells you what keys you're pressing on your keyboard, and the Narrator command associated with them. Turn on input learning by pressing Narrator + 1 (the number 1 key). Turn it off by pressing Narrator + 1 twice.May 21, 2019

Excuse Me, Which "Key" on the Querty KeyBoard is Microsoft's
Narrator "Key"?

Insert key is the Narrator key, NVDA key and the Jaws key.

They all should just call it the insert key instead of pretending it is their key.

I’d agree with you, except the “whatever” key is not always the insert key, depending on the layout you choose. Some prefer the capslock key, and I think it is even possible to map it to something else if you want to. Hence, whatever key you have assigned is the “screen-reader” key, and using that terminology avoids the confusion of discussing what would be the wrong key for some users.

For what it is worth, if they changed it, they would know which one it is, right?

So I was addressing the generic question about the default.
Now if someone changed it and forgot what they did, that is another story.
Thanks,
