Moderated I now have a solution to my jaws problem that I was having with no longer getting that pop up update jaws window when my jaws first starts up asking me if I want to update to a newer release of jaws 2022
Hank W
Good afternoon,
Firstly I want to say a big, big thanks very much 😊 for all the very helpful replies I have received to my very strange jaws problem I have been having for about a week or so with no longer getting that automatic notification of updates pop up dialogue window when my jaws first starts up.
I found out earlier today after speaking to freedom scientific tech support, that the solution to fix my problem I am having with not getting that automatic notification of updates pop up dialogue box when my jaws first starts up asking me if I yes or no want to update my jaws, is to update my jaws to the latest June 22 release of jaws 2022.
Freedom tech support said the reason I, since about a week or so ago since around the time that the June 22 release of jaws 2022 came available, am no longer getting this auto notification of updates pop up dialogue box when my jaws first starts up is because I am still using a too far back older release of jaws 2022 before the latest June 22 release of jaws 2022, (I am currently still using the October 2021 release of jaws 2022).
With kindest regards,
Hank

Do have to tell it yes. Otherwise it will not tell you if you are up to date or not.

Hello back,
in the jaws help menu when I activate the check for jaws updates, I only get the question from the freedom scientific app asking me if I want to let this app make changes to my computer and I can only select yes or no. Since I am not sure at this time what this freedom scientific app will exactly do to my laptop if I select yes, I for now instead select no.
In the jaws help menu, when you activate this app check for updates, I thought a jaws user gets a list of all the current updates of jaws that are available, giving the jaws user the option to select from this list the particular jaws update they want to download?
Kindest regards,
Hank

Also, if you get into JAWS Help, what happens if you activate the Check for Updates choice in the Help menu?

Hello back,
Thanks for all the helpful replies. But as I was mentioning earlier, even though I am still using the October or November 2021 release of jaws 2022, I am no longer getting that automatic pop up window when my jaws first starts up asking me if I want to yes or no update my jaws to a newer release of jaws 2022?
I was until about 3 or 4 days ago getting this automatic pop up window asking me if I yes or no wanted to update my jaws every time when my jaws first started up, but now I am not. This has got me stumped because as I was saying, I am still using the last October or November 2021 release of jaws 2022. I have already checked in jaws under basics, and the automatic notification of jaws updates is yes checked.
I am really hoping that maybe someone has an idea on how I can get back this automatic pop up window asking me if I want to yes or no update my jaws to a newer release of jaws 2022 when my jaws first starts up? Would be very, very appreciative for any help on this matter. Much, much thanks in advance for any possible help on this.
With kindest regards,
Hank

Hello:
" Wait, didn't I hear on the FSCast that they had changed that behavior so that you were notified of newer versions even if that newer version is a major version upgrade and not just a point version update?"
If you hold the JAWS Home Annual License, what you say is accurate. But if you are on the traditional licensing scheme, you will not automatically be notified when a major update comes out—usually around the end of October.
Cordially,
Curtis Chong

Hello,
Now when my jaws first starts up I no longer get that notification
update pop up window in which I can select yes or no to update jaws
or not. And no I have not yet updated my October or November 2021
release of jaws 2022 to the latest release of 2022.
I have checked under options in jhaws and the automatic notification
of updates is checked.
This really has me stumped. Anyone maybe please have any ideas on
how I can get back this pop up window when I first start my October
or November 2021 release of jaws 2022? Much, much thanks in advance
for any help I can maybe get with this.
With kindest regards,
Hank
