[NFBCS] My system opens the context menu instead of clicking the save button when I attempt to save a file and when I attempt to attach a file to a message in outlook

Sean:

One work around for this is to just tab past the save button. Now, shift tab back to it and press Enter. For me, this avoids the context menu popping up.

This is a strange one, and I want to know if this a bug with the new JAWS or if something strange is happening with Windows 11.  Create a file, choose the save as dialog, find a place to save the file and finally tab to the save button.  When I do this and press enter JAWS says "context menu map network drive..."  I try to hit save again and usually after about the third or fourth time, I will get the save action I was expecting.  This bug started a few weeks ago, no I don't think the Windows 11 upgrade made a difference.  So it is performing the right click action on enter with save instead of the left-click action it seems.  Anyone here notice this behavior and know if this is something wih the new JAWS beta or something I can change in Windows 11 to resolve?  When I get the open context menu action, I tried using space bar instead of enter with the same results.
Thanks for any ideas
Sean
