How To Add Multiple Recipients, Cc, And Bcc
In a new message, use tab to navigate the field that JAWS will call “to colon”. Type out an email address and press enter. You’ll be send to another “to colon” field, and you can add another recipient. If you want to Cc or Bcc someone, simply use tab (shift tab) to navigate to the corresponding “combo box” and use the arrow keys to change between, To, Cc, Bcc, and more. |
Navigating Windows File Explorer for Attachments
You can navigate through the different parts of file explorer using tab. To move through folders and files, use the arrow keys. You can search within a folder for a specific file by navigating to the search field by using tab or by pressing Ctrl + F. Keep in mind the idea is to press enter on the file you’d like to attach. You’ll do this in the section JAWS calls “Shell Folder View”. |
