I also had the overlay window bit in JAWS 18, but had no trouble installing JAWS 2018.  As a matter of fact I even did the installation through the check
for updates, not the web.

I find it very interesting and disturbing that components needed uninstalling before 2018 installation.

I have had this too ever since installing JAWS 18. It seems harmless and as said, it's probably related to jAWS itself. Never had any problems installing updates but I also have not tested the beta. Interesting.

I have no new info on the overlay today but I was able to install the 2018 beta by doing the run dialogue and not saving it to my download folder.  I perfer to save it to my download folder but after many tries I just couldn't do it that way.  I still wish to find info on the overlay and will pass it on if I do find it.

Keep us posted about this, please Fred?  I've always wondered that was all about too.

The reason that I am trying to turn this feature off is that
Freedomscientific technician told me that OCR and a couple of other
features has to be uninstalled for my computer to allow the 2018 beta
to be installed.  When I go to programs and features jaws tells me
that overlay windows has to first be turned off.  I have not been able
to do this.  I guess I will have to call freedomscientific again for help.

Hi Fred,

I also have this always on top window on the JAWS Task List.
I am sure this is JAWS-RELATED, because I could check it by pressing
INSERT+Q after switching to this window from the JTL. I think this is
INSERT+for
the Virtual Cursor image on the screen which was introduced a few JAWS
18 updates ago, but Im not sure.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Question about windows overlay

I am using win 10 and latest jaws 18.  When I press insert plus F10 to
bring up the Windows list dialogue jaws says overlay windows zero on
top and I would appreciate it if someone could tell me what overlay
windows is and how to close it or remove it.  So far I haven't been
able to do anything with it.



Thanks much,



FRED C. ADAMS W4HC
