Hi. I don’t understand. We’re now on JAWS-2020. Why is there an update to JAWS 2019?

Hi Richard & Tim,
Yes, there is for J2019 and I'll have the info posted shortly.

Hi!
For the past couple of days, I have been getting a notification about a new JAWS update. Presently, I am using JAWS 2019. Is this true? Usually, on this list there is a posting about “New JAWS Update and What’s New,” but I have not seen that yet. So, I am wondering if this notification I am getting is real - or if it is some sort of malicious virus?
Thanks, Richard

They did that with 2018 after 2019 came out.
This seems to be a pattern, which is actually a good thing since they allow people to keep previous versions on their systems.

Re: Kill jaws process completely
Jaffar Sidek
Hi. When you unload Jaws, sometimes the Jaws Instigated
processes such as JHook and the Jaws come server still stays
active in the background, unnecessarily consuming and hogging
computer resources needed for other operations. Applications that
need Intensive processing capabilities such as Digital Audio Work
Stations, especially those that rely on Jaws scripts for propper
access cannot function propperly unless the whole of jaws is
freshly started, hence the need to kill the leftover processes.

Re: Kill jaws process completely
JM Casey
Hi.
Well, Jaffar doesn’t want to *remove* jaws from the computer via control panel – he could kill the processes using task manager. Yes, insert-f4 works *most of the time*, but if JAWS is already unresponsive for some reason, it may not/may leave thigns behind. There is more than one process associated with JAWS on most computers. I believe I have at least three or four – the main jaws programme, a synth executable, the oCR software, and maybe something else (not checking task manager right now).

What is the point of Kill JAWS? You can just hit JAWS Key plus F4 to exit JAWS, or remove it completely through the Control Panel Add/Remove Programs.

Hi Jaffar,
The steps below are for an older version of Jaws, but hopefully they'll give you a shove in the right direction:
hello;
if your using jaws15,
"C:\Program Files\Freedom Scientific\Runtime JAWS\15.0\JFWKill.exe"
if you really need to you could create shortcut to desktop,
the windows-key+insert-key+f4=kil/unload jaws from memory.

J2019 December Update, Build 1912.1.400 + What's New
Mike B
Hi All,
Here's the December update for J2019 build 1912.1.400 + what's new in this
release.
32 & 64 bit:
What's new:
Enhancements in JAWS 2019.1912.1 (December 2019)
The following is a list of improvements made in JAWS 2019 between the
September 2019 update and the December 2019 update.
list of 4 items
• Added Functionality to Fusion, or when running ZoomText and JAWS together, that was previously only available in MAGic. When performing a Say All ( INSERT+DOWN ARROW ), JAWS begins reading from the current location of the Virtual Cursor or mouse pointer, whichever was last moved. For instance, if you are moving around a web page or PDF document using the mouse pointer, you can point the mouse at the location where you want to start reading and press INSERT+DOWN ARROW to start the Say All. This works in Chrome, Internet Explorer, the new Microsoft Edge browser, Acrobat Reader DC, as well as the JAWS Results Viewer and the JAWS and ZoomText help systems. It currently does not work in Firefox as you must first click at the location where you want to begin reading before starting the Say All. • Removed extraneous "Insert F1 Help" announcements that were heard when navigating through various controls on the web. • Addressed reported issues with JAWS speech unexpectedly becoming muted after logging into Windows on some systems. • In Speech On Demand (INSERT+SPACEBAR, followed by S ), JAWS no longer speaks the next or previous word in order to be consistent with other Windows navigation keystrokes. Speech On Demand allows you to limit the amount of speech you hear and only announces actions for a limited set of screen reading keystrokes such as reading the current character, word, line, window title, and so on. list end Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Go
Rams! Arguing with a woman is like reading a software license agreement. In the end you have to ignore everything, & click I agree.
