If you're using another screen reader or a different operating system, tell me\u2014I'll get instructions tailored for you.\n\n---\n\n## Key Shortcuts in File Explorer\n\nThese are general keyboard shortcuts that work well with most screen readers.\n\n| Action | Shortcut |\n|---|---|\n| **Open File Explorer** | Windows key + E ([support.microsoft.com](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/accessibility/windows/use-a-screen-reader-to-explore-and-navigate-file-explorer-in-windows?utm_source=openai)) |\n| **Move focus between panes, toolbar, and file list** | Press F6 (forward) or Shift+F6 (backward) until you hear the area you want ([support.microsoft.com](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/accessibility/windows/use-a-screen-reader-to-explore-and-navigate-file-explorer-in-windows?utm_source=openai)) |\n| **Open Context Menu (the right-click menu) for a selected file or folder** | Shift + F10, or the Menu key on your keyboard ([support.microsoft.com](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/accessibility/windows/use-a-screen-reader-to-explore-and-navigate-file-explorer-in-windows?utm_source=openai)) |\n| **Activate a button, menu item, or link that's focused** | Enter or Spacebar (depending on the item) ([support.microsoft.com](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/accessibility/windows/use-a-screen-reader-to-explore-and-navigate-file-explorer-in-windows?utm_source=openai)) |\n| **Move through toolbar or ribbon tabs** | Alt to shift focus to ribbon, then arrow keys, Tab or Shift+Tab to move through the controls ([support.microsoft.com](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/accessibility/windows/use-a-screen-reader-to-explore-and-navigate-file-explorer-in-windows?utm_source=openai)) |\n\n---\n\n## Using Screen Reader Tools\n\nIf you're using **Narrator**, here are useful key combinations to know:\n\n- **Caps Lock + F1** \u2014 Display *all Narrator commands* ([support.hp.com](https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_7299764-7299808-16?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Caps Lock + F2** \u2014 Show commands relevant to the current item you're focused on ([support.hp.com](https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_7299764-7299808-16?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Caps Lock + Esc** \u2014 Exit Narrator ([support.hp.com](https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_7299764-7299808-16?utm_source=openai))  \n\nNVDA and JAWS have similar commands, usually involving a modifier plus F10 or a menu key to open context menus.\n\n---\n\n## Accessing \u201cOptions\u201d and Settings\n\nIf by \u201coptions\u201d you mean the settings for File Explorer (like changing layout, sort order, view options, etc.):\n\n1. **Ribbon Tabs or Menu Bar:**\n   - Press **Alt**, then arrow keys to navigate to the ribbon tabs.\n   - Once you reach the \u201cView\u201d tab (which often includes layout, sort, display options), press **Enter** to open it.\n   - Use **Tab**, **Shift+Tab**, or arrow keys to move among the buttons. Press **Enter** or **Spacebar** to activate one. ([support.microsoft.com](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/accessibility/windows/use-a-screen-reader-to-explore-and-navigate-file-explorer-in-windows?utm_source=openai))\n\n2. **File Explorer Settings (Folder Options):**\n   - From the ribbon, press **Alt + V** to open the *View* tab, then press **O** to open Folder Options (this keyboard shortcut can vary depending on version)\u2014if that doesn\u2019t work, open the \u201cView\u201d tab and navigate inside using arrow keys until you reach \u201cOptions.\u201d Press **Enter** to open it.  \n   - Or, in some versions of Windows, press **Alt**, then **F**, then **O** in File Explorer to open Folder Options. If that\u2019s supported, your screen reader will announce \u201cOptions\u201d once it\u2019s focused.  \n\n3. **Right-click Context Menu:**\n   - To get options specific to a file or folder (like \u201cProperties,\u201d \u201cOpen with,\u201d etc.), focus on the item with the arrow keys, then press **Shift + F10** or the **Menu key**. ([support.microsoft.com](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/accessibility/windows/use-a-screen-reader-to-explore-and-navigate-file-explorer-in-windows?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf you tell me which screen reader you're using (Narrator, NVDA, JAWS, or something else) *and* which version of Windows (10, 11, etc.), I can walk you through exactly how it will work on your setup.

        "content": "Here\u2019s a step\u2010by\u2010step guide on how to use a screen reader (like NVDA, JAWS, or Narrator) to add or update a certification on your LinkedIn profile. If you tell me whether you\u2019re using LinkedIn on desktop or mobile, I can give you more specific keystrokes or gestures.\n\n---\n\n## What to Do Before You Start\n\nMake sure you have the following info ready from your certification:\n\n- Official name of the certification  \n- Issuing organization  \n- Issue date (month, year)  \n- Expiration date if applicable  \n- Credential ID (if any)  \n- URL to verify (if available)\n\n---\n\n## Desktop: Adding a New Certification or Editing One\n\n1. **Log in and go to your profile**  \n   Press `Tab` until you hear \u201cMe, collapsed\u201d then press `Enter`. Tab to \u201cView Profile\u201d and press `Enter`. ([linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/help/sales-navigator/answer/a567169/manage-licenses-certifications?lang=en&utm_source=openai))\n\n2. **Add the Licenses & Certifications section if needed**  \n   If you don\u2019t already have this section:  \n   - Tab to \u201cAdd section\u201d or something similar.  \n   - Use arrow keys to move through options until you hear \u201cRecommended\u201d or \u201cBackground.\u201d  \n   - Pick \u201cLicenses & certifications\u201d and press `Enter` to add that section. ([linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/help/sales-navigator/answer/a567169/manage-licenses-certifications?lang=en&utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **Add or edit a certification**  \n   - To **add**: Tab to the Licenses & Certifications section, then tab to \u201cAdd license or certification\u201d and press `Enter`. ([linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/help/sales-navigator/answer/a567169/manage-licenses-certifications?lang=en&utm_source=openai))  \n   - To **edit** an existing one: Tab to the certificate you want to update, locate the \u201cEdit\u201d (pencil icon) control, and press `Enter`. ([linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/help/sales-navigator/answer/a567169/manage-licenses-certifications?lang=en&utm_source=openai))\n\n4. **Fill in the details**  \n   Using `Tab` to move forward, type or select in the fields:\n   - Certification name  \n   - Issuing organization (often a drop-down as you type, for auto-suggestions)  \n   - Issue date, and expiration if applicable  \n   - Credential ID if your certificate has one  \n   - URL to verify if it's available ([linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/help/sales-navigator/answer/a567169/manage-licenses-certifications?lang=en&utm_source=openai))\n\n5. **Save**  \n   After filling all necessary fields, tab to the \u201cSave\u201d button and press `Enter`. The updated certification will now show up in that section. ([linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/help/sales-navigator/answer/a567169/manage-licenses-certifications?lang=en&utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## Mobile (iOS or Android)\n\nIf you're using LinkedIn\u2019s app:\n\n1. Open the app and go to your profile (often via your profile picture or \u201cMe\u201d menu).  \n2. Navigate to \u201cView profile.\u201d  \n3. Look for \u201cAdd section\u201d (or a similar option) if the Licenses & Certifications section isn\u2019t present. Otherwise, find the Licenses & Certifications area. ([linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/help/sales-navigator/answer/a567169/manage-licenses-certifications?lang=en&utm_source=openai))\n\n4. To **add**: Tap \u201cAdd licenses & certifications\u201d then fill in each field (name, issuing org, dates, etc.).  \n   To **edit**: Tap the pencil/edit icon next to the certification you want to change. ([linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/help/sales-navigator/answer/a567169/manage-licenses-certifications?lang=en&utm_source=openai))\n\n5. Tap \u201cSave\u201d after finishing your edits. ([linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/help/sales-navigator/answer/a567169/manage-licenses-certifications?lang=en&utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## Tips for Efficient Navigation with a Screen Reader\n\n- Use **Tab / Shift+Tab** to move around between controls.  \n- Use **Enter** to activate buttons or open drop-downs.  \n- Use **Spacebar** to toggle checkboxes (for example, \u201cThis credential does not expire\u201d).  \n- Listen carefully for labels like \u201cName\u201d, \u201cIssuing organization\u201d, \u201cIssue date\u201d, \u201cSave\u201d, etc. These are announced by the screen reader.  \n- Once saved, LinkedIn usually reorders certifications automatically: recent ones or those without expiration dates often appear first. You generally *can\u2019t control the ordering manually*. ([linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/help/sales-navigator/answer/a567169/manage-licenses-certifications?lang=en&utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf you tell me which screen reader you're using and whether you're on desktop or phone, I can walk you through the exact keys/gestures."
