([support.microsoft.com](https://support.microsoft.com/en-US/servicing/os/windows/2026/02/windows-11-version-26h1?utm_source=openai))\n\nHere\u2019s what is known about its release schedule:\n\n- Microsoft is currently offering Windows 11 version 26H2 to Windows Insiders in the **Release Preview Channel** for testing. ([blogs.windows.com](https://blogs.windows.com/windows-insider/2026/08/27/releasing-windows-11-version-26h2-to-the-release-preview-channel/?utm_source=openai))  \n- The update is expected to become **generally available in the second half of 2026**, likely sometime in **fall 2026**. ([mc.merill.net](https://mc.merill.net/message/MC1397393?utm_source=openai))  \n\nSo, if you're waiting for the full public rollout (not just Insider previews), you\u2019ll likely see it released around **September or October 2026**. If you need the update sooner and are comfortable using preview builds, the Release Preview Channel gives early access."

        "content": "In JAWS scripting, `TypeKey` is a built-in function used to simulate keystrokes in the active application. It\u2019s often used in scripts where you want to automate certain key presses\u2014like opening menus, navigating controls, or triggering shortcuts\u2014which helps in customizing how JAWS interacts with other software. Below is a detailed explanation of `TypeKey`, its parameters, how it behaves, and examples.\n\n---\n\n## What is `TypeKey`\n\n- `TypeKey` sends keystrokes through to the application, rather than having JAWS handle those keystrokes internally. This ensures that the program currently in focus receives the simulated keystroke just as if the user had pressed it. ([freedomscientific.com](https://www.freedomscientific.com/Content/Documents/Other/ScriptManual/10-1_PassThroughScripts.htm?utm_source=openai))  \n- It\u2019s useful in \u201cpass-through\u201d scripts: scripts that intercept a keystroke, perhaps provide additional behavior, but then still pass that keystroke onto the application so the normal functionality remains intact. ([freedomscientific.com](https://www.freedomscientific.com/Content/Documents/Other/ScriptManual/10-1_PassThroughScripts.htm?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## Syntax and Parameters\n\nThe basic syntax of `TypeKey` is:\n\n```\nTypeKey (\"keystroke\" [, inputType])\n```\n\nHere\u2019s what the parameters are:\n\n| Parameter | Type | Required? | Description |\n|-----------|------|-----------|-------------|\n| `\"keystroke\"` | string | **Required** | A string that represents the key or combination of keys to simulate. Examples: `\"A\"`, `\"Tab\"`, `\"Enter\"`, `\"Alt+F\"`. These are enclosed in quotes. You can also use a constant instead of a literal string, if defined elsewhere. ([freedomscientific.com](https://www.freedomscientific.com/Content/Documents/Other/ScriptManual/10-1_PassThroughScripts.htm?utm_source=openai)) |\n| `inputType` | integer | Optional | Specifies how the input is simulated (if needed). If omitted, it defaults to a standard mode (`0`). Some advanced scripts may use a different value to change context or behavior of how the keystroke is delivered. ([uiciechi.it](https://www.uiciechi.it/servizi/riviste/TestoRiv.asp?id_art=24015&utm_source=openai)) |\n\n---\n\n## Behavior and Notes\n\n- **Literal vs. Constant:** You can pass the keystroke either as a quoted literal like `\"Alt+F\"`, or via a constant you defined, such as `KSFileMenu`, where `KSFileMenu = \"Alt+F\"` in a header file. Using constants helps maintain consistency. ([freedomscientific.com](https://www.freedomscientific.com/Content/Documents/Other/ScriptManual/10-1_PassThroughScripts.htm?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Optional second parameter:** Most uses of `TypeKey` only need the first parameter. The second is optional; for many use cases, you don\u2019t need to worry about specifying it. If not specified, JAWS uses a default. ([uiciechi.it](https://www.uiciechi.it/servizi/riviste/TestoRiv.asp?id_art=24015&utm_source=openai))  \n- **Compiler errors:** If you include a comma for the second parameter but leave it blank (for example, `TypeKey (\"Tab\", )`), this can lead to a compile error. Be sure to either fully specify parameters or remove trailing commas when the second parameter is omitted. ([gist.github.com](https://gist.github.com/BeastlyTheos/177004102bafda4b20e9b6e72863d29a?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## Examples\n\n1. **Simple key pass-through:**\n   ```jss\n   TypeKey(\"Alt+F\")\n   ```\n   This simulates pressing ALT + F, such as opening the File menu in many apps. ([freedomscientific.com](https://www.freedomscientific.com/Content/Documents/Other/ScriptManual/10-1_PassThroughScripts.htm?utm_source=openai))\n\n2. **Using a constant:**\n   ```jss\n   Const\n     KSFileMenu = \"Alt+F\"\n   ...\n   TypeKey(KSFileMenu)\n   ```\n   Here, `KSFileMenu` was predefined as a constant and reused. ([freedomscientific.com](https://www.freedomscientific.com/Content/Documents/Other/ScriptManual/10-1_PassThroughScripts.htm?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **Specifying the optional input type parameter:**\n   ```jss\n   TypeKey(\"Alt+M\", 1)\n   ```\n   Suppose `1` represents a different input context or delivery mechanism. (Note: the exact meaning of different `inputType` values depends on your script\u2019s context and how JAWS expects them.) ([uiciechi.it](https://www.uiciechi.it/servizi/riviste/TestoRiv.asp?id_art=24015&utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf you want, I can also pull up the possible values for the `inputType` parameter (if documented) and show what those different modes actually do. Would that be helpful?"
