Hi all. Recently, jaws 8 has been doing something rather strange. When I am on a web site link and press Jaw's right mouse button, I am taken to the context menu of the desktop.

I have no idea how to fix this. I don't think it is a bug in Jaws 8 because the change started yesterday. Furthermore, the Jaws right mouse button works correctly when I load jaws 7. Does anyone know how I can get the right mouse button in jaws 8 to work correctly?

Sounds like it is a problem with jaws8 if jaws 7 doesn't have the problem.

However, try pressing windows key plus m to minimize all windows, find the web page with alt tab, and try it again.

Thanks, Bob. Your suggestion fixed my problem. Once I minimize all windows with windows-m, right-clicking works as it should.
