What's even more interesting, I run Windows with Automatic Updates turned off. I know most folks will say that's a security risk, but unfortunately I learned the hard way when I updated Windows 7 and it did something funky that led to mismatched drivers, program incompatibility, and broken accessibility.

Hi Annabelle!
You woun't hear that from me! I've been the computer industry since 1980 and I have always felt that automatic updates are a very bad idea. The problem with automatic updates is that you may get an update that does bad thing to your computer, and while you might be able remove the update, the automatic update feature will just put it back again. It is always better to wait a while to see what others are saying about an update and if the news isn't good, you just don't install it!

Yes, turning off automatic updates is a good thing. I don't know if windows 10 or that newer one, LOL, allow one to select which updates can be installed through windows update, like we can in earlier windows. Glenn

Hi Glenn!
No,, Microsoft took that away from us. You have to get a professional edition of Windows to have any control over which updates you get.
You would think that a software company like Microsoft would know how bad an idea automatic updates are.

Hi, Molly. You are right, that it is easier to buy the Annual Licence than to update an expired SMA. The difference is that, even if your SMA expires, your current version of JAWS will keep working indefinitely. The Annual Licence, on the other hand, will go into 40-minute mode, the month in which your Annual Licence expires.

how can u turn it off on window 11 -------------------------------------------------- From: "Glenn / Lenny" <glenn@...> Sent: Wednesday, July 06, 2022 8:16 AM To: <main@jfw.groups.io> Subject: Re: Changing From One License Type to Another: Additional Costs?

Hi Annabelle!
You woun't hear that from me! I've been the computer industry since 1980 and I have always felt that automatic updates are a very bad idea. The problem with automatic updates is that you may get an update that does bad thing to your computer, and while you might be able remove the update, the automatic update feature will just put it back again. It is always better to wait a while to see what others are saying about an update and if the news isn't good, you just don't install it!

As I understand it, JAWS is mine to keep, even if I don't renew the SMA, but eventually the software won't work as Windows and applications keep progressing. Like you, I like the idea of owning my copy, even if it becomes outdated if I don't renew the SMA. The annual license is great for removing the barrier of entry for new JAWS users, but feels like a fleeting thing that you lose if you cannot afford the annual license one year.
If your last SMA was 2002, you may not be able to switch base to even a professional SMA at this point. You are probably best to call FS Sales and ask about your situation.

I purchased my SMA with a college trust fund back in 2002, as I was going to school back then. The SMA was a "Professional" license. I want to try to change my recent home annual license to a perpetual license, but I'm not sure how much it would cost to upgrade from one license to another. Am I right when I hear that a perpetual license never expires?

Hey there Meow Meow! Your name makes me smile! To turn off automatic updates in new versions of Windows like Windows 10, which doesn't seem to have that parameter in the Control Panel like other previous versions (That really makes me mad), you actually have to create a registry key. If it's not already there, go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion. create a new key called "WindowsUpdate". within that key, create another key called AU. Within that key, create a Dword value called NoAutoUpdate. Set that value to 1. If you have Winaero Tweaker, which also helps, set the parameter of Disable Windows Update to checked, and you should be good to go. It does sound complicated, but it's definitely worth it if you don't wanna be bothered with constant updates!

You could try that. But be sure to install it on an empty hard drive in case you have data you want to save on the one with Windows 11. And, if you can believe it, my sighted friend Markus (Yes, that's "Markus" with a "K", not a "C"), helped me to install Windows 10, with narrator! Isn't that amazing that you can install Windows using Narrator?

To turn off automatic updates in new versions of Windows like Windows 10, which doesn't seem to have that parameter in the Control Panel like other previous versions (That really makes me mad), you actually have to create a registry key. If it's not already there, go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion. create a new key called "WindowsUpdate". within that key, create another key called AU. Within that key, create a Dword value called NoAutoUpdate. Set that value to 1. If you have Winaero Tweaker, which also helps, set the parameter of Disable Windows Update to checked, and you should be good to go. It does sound complicated, but it's definitely worth it if you don't wanna be bothered with constant updates!

Yes, turning off automatic updates is a good thing.

Hi Annabelle!
You woun't hear that from me! I've been the computer industry since 1980 and I have always felt that automatic updates are a very bad idea. The problem with automatic updates is that you may get an update that does bad thing to your computer, and while you might be able remove the update, the automatic update feature will just put it back again. It is always better to wait a while to see what others are saying about an update and if the news isn't good, you just don't install it!

As I understand it, JAWS is mine to keep, even if I don't renew the SMA, but eventually the software won't work as Windows and applications keep progressing. Like you, I like the idea of owning my copy, even if it becomes outdated if I don't renew the SMA. The annual license is great for removing the barrier of entry for new JAWS users, but feels like a fleeting thing that you lose if you cannot afford the annual license one year.
If your last SMA was 2002, you may not be able to switch base to even a professional SMA at this point. You are probably best to call FS Sales and ask about your situation.

I purchased my SMA with a college trust fund back in 2002, as I was going to school back then. The SMA was a "Professional" license. I want to try to change my recent home annual license to a perpetual license, but I'm not sure how much it would cost to upgrade from one license to another. Am I right when I hear that a perpetual license never expires?

You could try that. But be sure to install it on an empty hard drive in case you have data you want to save on the one with Windows 11. And, if you can believe it, my sighted friend Markus (Yes, that's "Markus" with a "K", not a "C"), helped me to install Windows 10, with narrator! Isn't that amazing that you can install Windows using Narrator?

Generally it is not recommended for you to downgrade back from an original windows 11 to windows 10. Windows 11 is quite stable now, a year into its launched. Perhaps you can describe what didn't work well on Windows 11.
