Hello Eric,
I would like to find out why you have removed the talking installer from the latest billed of JAWS? That is no good if you are blind. Andrew |

If someone is using windows 10, you can bring up Narrator for the install. In fact, you can do most anything using the Narrator in 10 & 11. I would say that even Narrator in windows 7 could get anyone through the install of Jaws. Glenn ----- Original Message -----

I'm afraid to tell you, yes they have, as I have just tried it.

Can you provide more detail here. For example, were you or were you not running a screen reader when you attempted to do the installation? Are you a new JAWS user or simply updating to the current release? I confess that on my system, whenever I do an installation, I do have a prior version of JAWS running. Hence, I cannot replicate your situation. Cordially, Curtis Chong -----Original Message-----

I just did a JAWS repair, I turned off my installed version of JAWS and there was no speech with the repair. I turn on narrator. Previously when I have updated or installed JAWS there was always a previous version doing the talking. I suspect that a totally new install would have speech.----- Original Message -----

Actually, there is no real reason for turning off JAWS when running a repair. I never have been advised to do that in the past.

I just did that as a test to see if JAWS would speech if previous version was not running.

I just unloaded JAWS and ran the installer, and it started talking to me in US Tom's voice, so I know it's still there. All the best Steve -----Original Message-----
