Re: Problems with Excel
Sieghard Weitzel <sieghard@...>
I have a few issues with Excel on my Windows 7 desktops, but don’t seem to have these on my Windows 10 laptop. Certainly no sluggishness, I would definitely report to FS and maybe call Microsoft Accessibiliuty to see if they have any suggestions. Make sure your Office 2016 is up to date and, if you can, upgrade to Jaws 2018 which should also help.

Sent: Wednesday, October 25, 2017 9:43 AM To: main@jfw.groups.io Subject: Problems with Excel
Hello,
This is my first time writing to this group. I have been using JAWS for over 20 years. I recently went into Windows 10 and have the latest version of JAWS 18 running. I am using MS Office 2016. I have worked through most of the things that are different from Windows 7 and Office 2010. However, in the past month I have come across a real problem in excel. I am having problems with JAWS either becoming so delayed that I wait more than 30 seconds when I try to arrow to the next cell or sometimes JAWS just turns itself off. When I initially open the excel program everything seems to work fine but after about three to 5 minutes this problem starts. I am working in spreadsheets I have had for several years. I am not sure if this is part of the problem or not.
Any suggestions on what I can do to fix this problem are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

It didn't ask me either, but one keystroke change I made carried over, so I think all will be fine.

I changed the command for time from insert+f12 to Insert+shift+t. Insert+f12 always struck me as a really stupid keystroke. Richard

Re: Problem trying to repair Jaws 18 before upgrading to V 2018
Sieghard Weitzel <sieghard@...>
Why not just install Jaws 2018, I would say at this point to set it up from scratch and not merge your settings when asked just so you get the best possible experience which is not effected by possibly some problem in your user settings. Jaws 2018 does not require you to repair Jaws 18, in fact you could completely uninstall Jaws 18 and it would make no difference to Jaws 2018.

Hello list, So, I’ve been dealing with this issue since Jaws 18 was put out on 9/26/17. Along with the Outlook address thing that later got fixed, I was having trouble when replying or forwarding message in Outlook. Arrowing down was not possible. Jaws would behave as though I was at the bottom of the screen. Even if I arrowed up once and then tried going back down to the line I was previously at, I’d encounter that same barrier. Navigating the message body of text with the read by paragraph or sentence commands, Jaws worked as always. It was just the read/navigate by line that was giving me problems. VFO tech support emailed me instructing that I should try doing a Jaws repair. Do the copy path from my JFW .exe file and add the / type repair at the end in the run dialog box. As I saw that Jaws 2018 came out today, I figured I’d try to get this resolved. I for one reason or another hadn’t had the chance to go through with the repair, but figured I should try addressing it before upgrading to JFW 2018. In any event, I went through the repair process earlier today and along with all the other typical Jaws chatter when doing an installation (I was using a JFW.exe file from October that addressed the Outlook issue), I heard Jaws say something about a sentinel system driver not being copied. By the end of the process I then got the following error message: The JAWS setup package could not install the required component JAWSRepair. The process will now exit. OK I already wrote VFO back about this, but as it’s Jaws 2018 release day, I don’t expect a follow up any time soon as I’m sure they’ll be dealing with all sorts of stuff related to that. Anyone have an idea on what this is or how to fix it? Thanks, Cristobal

not sure on what may have happened, however, I would try, 1, just enter on the executable, and then choose repair, and see if that works, or, perhaps, just do a uninstall, and try reinstalling. the jaws, sentinel system driver should already be installed. perhaps this is why heard the prompt.

But, since Jaws installs to a new folder I think it also offers to import your settings from the previous version, so you might be OK. But maybe one of the Jaws users with lots of experience will chime in with a more solid answer. Richard
