In the last 25 years of using Jaws I have never had it toast the OS. I have had to do a complete removal of all components and registry entries but that was the worst case. I think It screwed my video driver once back in the XP days.

The last time, it corrupted my Operating System and the Entire Hard-Drive was toast and had to be wiped clean and all re-installed. Be sure to have a back-up of your hard-drive before you do any JFW installs... Too obvious to be a mere coincidence...

Brian,
I suggested this because there are several people
that cross post and I got tired of the straggler emails that come through into
my In-box instead of the assigned folder. It's not a big deal, but
everytime I got 1 of these emails in my In-box instead of its folder it made me
think, okay who the hell is this and where / why am I getting this crap!
LOL So, I stopped that real quick by modifying my message
rule.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. *My body has absorbed so much soap and disinfectant lately that when I pee it cleans the toilet.

An alternative is to copy the address to Notepad, where right and left arrows will read by letter, and on confirming it’s correct, copy and paste back into the message’s “to” field. Of course, empty the “To” field before pasting.

Hi, Arkadiusz. To do this, either use the NumPad, and Press JAWS Key plus eight on the NumPad twice quickly to get it to spell the link character by character, or, if you have your JAWS set to Laptop layout, use CAPS LOCK+I twice quickly to get it to spell character by character.

I think it is what ever you get accustomed to using. Image for Windows did cost me around $40, but it has always worked to restore my hard drives.
You can use IFW to create a recovery disk that includes Narrator so you have a screen reader to use to restore your PC. That is an absolute necessity if Windows is so messed up that your PC won’t boot up in to Windows.
Since this recovery disk has to be bootable for disaster recovery, you would need to change your PC’s boot sequence in the BIOS. That requires eye sight but it is a one time change.
In my case, instead of getting someone to change my boot sequence in the BIOS, I use F11 and some additional key strokes to force Windows to boot up from the boot media which can be either a DVD or a thumb drive again, created with the IFW software.
Its been so long since I created the boot media that I do not have clear recollection as to how it was accomplished. The directions are in the IFW manual. I suspect that there are several members on these list who can provide you with the directions to create the boot media and provide directions on how to get a crippled PC to boot from the media if you do not want to get someone to change your boot sequence in your PC’s BIOS.
The best of luck,

From: main@jfw.groups.io <main@jfw.groups.io> On Behalf Of James Bentley
Greetings,
I’m guessing that there is a typo in your response.
What do I need to run to tell when check boxes are checked?
And, in my Version of Image for Windows, something like V3... there is a check box in settings that is called accessible check boxes. You can check this to cause Jaws to see the state of the check boxes.
But, You will still have to use the Jaws/or equivalent cursor to tell that they are checked in some places in the menus. Also, in some places in the menus, you will see a PLUS SIGN instead of a checkbox for example, to indicate that a drive has been selected to be added to the back up process.
In my particular case, on all 3 of my laptops, I just hit the space bar to put a PLUS SIGN in front of my primary drive/C drive to do a full back up. IFW has never let me down with Windows 7 or Windows 10 and I have done recoveries on all 3.

Terabyte Drive Image Backup and Restore Suite is 100% accessible beginning to end, including the recovery disk. There's an option to set in an INI file when building the recovery disk that will automatically start Narrator when said disk is booted. Works a treat, as they say.

One can test criteria for a rule first by using the
"find" command, which in OE and in Outlook is shift + control + F.
Then use the various fields to find
messages.
So in your "to" field put:
I'm sure you could filter with just
as well.
You can use as many fields as you wish, but the
more criteria you use, the less it will find, and likewise, less it will
filter.
But if that gets the results you want in a regular
search filter, then use that criteria for your working filter.

Hi Lenny,
Because people will use different criteria from
their address book when sending to this group I've had to use both the, To &
CC field option, Below is what I use when creating a message rule for this
group.
Apply this rule after the message arrives Where
the To or CC line contains 'jfw@groups.io'
or 'main@jfw.groups.io'

Re: create a rule for this list
I believe that:
[jfw] shows up in the subject of any message from this group. But it's been ages since I used the e-mail interface. But I know that the NVDA group uses [nvda] and Android Accessibility has [androidaccessibility]. It would only make sense that this group uses [jfw] in all its subjects when e-mail is sent. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1909, Build 18363 The purpose of education is not to validate ignorance but to overcome it.
