Hi.
I think one of two things.
1. You got a Windows update, and it was quickly finishing up the update
installation process, and JAWS had enough time to launch itself in the
secure desktop environment prior to the point where the update finished
and you were either put on the log in screen or logged in.
2. For some reason JAWS managed to launch itself once in some other
desktop environment before it ended what ever it was doing. This is
related to 1 actually. You'll sometimes hear a screen reader start
itself while a system is shutting down too, this can occur if it spends
enough time on the secure desktop environment after your account is
logged off before it actually shuts down.
This doesn't hurt anything aside from that it can cause the system to
take a little longer to do what ever it's supposed to be doing. The
trade off though is to disable JAWS on the log on screen and this isn't
particularly desirable in most cases.

Hello,
Jaws 18 and Windows 10 ..
Normally when I turn the computer on I wait approximately 10 to 20 seconds
and then Jaws will say "Jaws home use" and I'm ready to go.
Yesterday, when I turned the computer on after about 5 or 10 seconds Jaws
said "Jaws for windows, overlay windows zero, overlay windows zero, overlay
windows zero". Then, after another 5 or 10 seconds Jaws said "Jaws home
use" and I was ready to go.
I've had this computer for almost four months and this has never happened.
Has anybody experienced anything like this and is this something to be
concerned about? Thanks for any input.
Laura
