I for one am glad Vispero has finally left the 90's and early 2000's
behind and does no longer send out what to many are useless pieces of
plastic especially since in my case I haven't had a PC with a DVD
drive for many years.
The Jaws installer has changed some time ago and it is now a fairly
small setup program which means it does not contain all the files
needed for installation, instead it will download what is required
from the web.
This approach is used by more and more software companies, it's been
this way with Adobe Acrobat Reader for a long time, Chrome and
Microsoft Edge are both installed this way, if you subscribe to
Microsoft Office 365 the installer for the Office suite is also like
this and so are many others.
The one difference between installers like most of the ones I
mentioned above and the Jaws installer is that you can actually keep
the Chrome installer or the Edge installer and if you run it a year
from now on a new system it will still work and also download whatever
is the latest version.
For Jaws you still need to download a different setup program for the
version of Jaws you want to install, but since it is only a bit over
40Mb, it only takes a few seconds on most fast internet connections
nowadays and another nice thing is that you don't have to worry about
32 Bit and 64 Bit, the installer does both, looks at your system and
knows which to install.
The older installer was about 180 Mb, but it still downloaded the OCR
component during the installation.
If for some reason you need a full installer or maybe you have a very
slow internet connection where it's better to have everything
downloaded to your computer first you can still download the entire
DVD so to speak, it's I think something like a 500 or 600 Gb download
and it is entirely meant to be run offline if needed.

They suggest downloading the update and then installing. Then saving

The Jaws installer is setup to determine which machine you have and install the correct version.

If it is working, I would believe you installed the correct version.

Hi,

I have just installed JAWS 2020 online version and I need to verify if it has picked up the right version for my system which is 64bit.

How do I check that?

Thanks,

Meesha

Just leave it there.

It will not cause you any problem and if something starts acting funny with 2020, you can see if it does the same with 2019 if needed.

So now I have downloaded the online version of JAWS 2020 and installed it on my system and I was expecting it to prompt for authorization however I think it automatically picked it up.

So far…. It seems to run smoothly. And I have two versions now –both 2019 and 2020. I am not sure if I should uninstall 2019 as for some reason I never had a smooth uninstallation of JAWS as whenever I try to uninstall it, it always leaves it’s components and then when I try to install the JAWS, it doesn’t get properly installed like doesn’t give the usual audio feedback etc.

So may be I leave both of these…I hope that wouldn’t be a problem??

Dear Meesha & List:

Any time I have updated my JAWS version previously, I have had to download the new JAWS
from the FS.com web site.

The check for updates function of JAWS only checks for updates to the version

you are running.

I am talking about the offline installer. As the name implies, it contains everything you could possibly need for an installation, all the OCR components, help files and so on and it is 832MB which is very close to 1 Terrabyte.
If you don't believe me go to the Freedom Scientific download page for Jaws and select the "Offline installer for secure environments".

Love in Christ

Marty

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the

rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness,

against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.

Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to

resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm.

Ephesians 6:12, 13

I for one am glad Vispero has finally left the 90's and early 2000's

behind and does no longer send out what to many are useless pieces of

plastic especially since in my case I haven't had a PC with a DVD

drive for many years.

The Jaws installer has changed some time ago and it is now a fairly

small setup program which means it does not contain all the files

needed for installation, instead it will download what is required

from the web.

This approach is used by more and more software companies, it's been

this way with Adobe Acrobat Reader for a long time, Chrome and

Microsoft Edge are both installed this way, if you subscribe to

Microsoft Office 365 the installer for the Office suite is also like

this and so are many others.

The one difference between installers like most of the ones I

mentioned above and the Jaws installer is that you can actually keep

the Chrome installer or the Edge installer and if you run it a year

from now on a new system it will still work and also download whatever

is the latest version.

For Jaws you still need to download a different setup program for the

version of Jaws you want to install, but since it is only a bit over

40Mb, it only takes a few seconds on most fast internet connections

nowadays and another nice thing is that you don't have to worry about

32 Bit and 64 Bit, the installer does both, looks at your system and

knows which to install.

The older installer was about 180 Mb, but it still downloaded the OCR

component during the installation.

If for some reason you need a full installer or maybe you have a very

slow internet connection where it's better to have everything

downloaded to your computer first you can still download the entire

DVD so to speak, it's I think something like a 500 or 600 Gb download

and it is entirely meant to be run offline if needed.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

The reason is because they make major updates through the year now and

would to keep sending out c d's for the updates.

They suggest downloading the update and then installing.  Then saving

the update on a thumb drive and do for each update through the year.

This is true.  I do remember hearing on a podcast and later reading

somewhere they would no longer be sending out CD/DVD discs with JAWS.

Why don't you just download it, the fact is that even if they continue

this in my opinion useless and wasteful tradition of mailing out

DVD's, the version which will be current by the time you receive the

DVD will already be newer than the original Jaws 2020.1910.54 release

which you would get on the DVD.

Hi list:

 

Will Vispero be mailing out this latest Jaws program  release on cd,

and if yes, when should I expect to receive it?

What math? 1 Terabyte is 1000 Megabytes and saying that 832 Megabytes is almost 1 Terabyte I think it not an incorrect statement.
I never said the regular installer was that large, but the Offline installer is.

I am talking about the offline installer. As the name implies, it contains everything you could possibly need for an installation, all the OCR components, help files and so on and it is 832MB which is very close to 1 Terrabyte.
If you don't believe me go to the Freedom Scientific download page for Jaws and select the "Offline installer for secure environments".

Probably more when you include a decent voice or two and the ocr engine.
