The Windows List dialog displays a list of all currently open application windows on your computer. This includes programs, documents, and other open windows.

When you have many applications open, it can be difficult to quickly access your desktop to open a file, shortcut, or folder. WINDOWS+D is a Windows hotkey that instantly hides all open windows and shows the desktop, making it easy to get to what you need without closing anything. This is a fast way to clear your workspace and stay organized.

JAWS can announce your precise line and column position in any Word document with a single keystroke. This is helpful when navigating long documents. In regular text, “line” refers to the number of lines you are from the top of the document, and “column” is your character position within that line.

If you’re unsure about the spelling of a word while reading or editing, JAWS can quickly spell it out for you. This is especially helpful for catching typos, learning new words, or confirming tricky spellings as you work.
