moderated JAWS 2022 provides a way to avoid AutoMigration feature
|
Bill White
I just heard on the latest FS podcast that, due to feedback, there will be a checkbox in JAWS 2022 that will allow those who wish to do so, to avoid the AutoMigration feature. By default, this check box will be checked, so it won't be inconvenient for those who want to AutoMigrate, but for those of who don't want to AutoMigrate, we will now be able to uncheck this check box, and avoid having settings migrated from JAWS 2021 to JAWS 2022. I am happy that they made this change from their initial plans.

However, wouldn't the settings already be migrated with the installation of the beta?

I don't know if the beta migrates settings, but since I never installed the beta, when JAWS 2022 comes out, I'll be able to decide whether I want to migrate settings or not.

Lucky you. I made the mistake of downloading the beta and had to go back to 21, because of frequent crashes.

Hi again, Maria. If you uninstall the beta, and when JAWS 2022 comes out, you install it, you will still have the option or not to AutoMigrate your JAWS settings to JAWS 2022, since uninstalling the beta will also take out all the settings for the beta.

I have been using Jaws 2022 exclusively now for a bit and have no more crashes than with Jaws 2021 and this is both on my work desktop as well as my laptop at home.

Yes, but you can reset JAWS back to factory defaults if you want.

Yep, it’s a bit unhappy at the moment the beta.
I even found an Email where it wouldn’t read the subject line at all in the message list of Outlook 365. Going back to JAWS 2021, it worked.
So don’t try the beta, unless you want to have fun, or know what you’re doing, or at least if you do, keep the 2021 JAWS shortcut handy on the desktop with a keyboard hotkey so you can easily swap.

Steve, I think you are catching up with this thread, The latest news is there will be a checkbox up front before installation happens to not migrate your settings, so no need to go back to factory defaults because it will install that way.

I agree, but my answer concerned Maria’s question that if you install the current beta, it silently migrates. If you are unhappy with that, you can always reset to factory defaults, so you don’t have to wait for that checkbox.

That is interesting, I initially had some issues with Jaws 2022 not reading the message status in Outlook like Unread, Replied, Forwarded etc. and Jaws read the column headers in front of each field like this:

Anyways, this somehow cleared itself up and as I said, I have really no issues I can think of using Jaws 2022 for everything. Of course I don't mean to say there are no bugs, but there will of course always be issues which will get fixed if they are reported and are reproduceable.

Hi,
I must admit, I’ve only seen one Email where JAWS 20222 beta refused to read the subject line in the message list. I can’t figure what’s different about the Email and because it’s a private one, I can’t send it. But it is frustrating when you get weird bugs like that.
JAWS 2021 read it fine, as did Narrator and NVDA.
