Hi Mike, Thanks for the info. I did go to the area you were talking about and Jaws 2018 was checked. I seem to have got both my computers to startup on Jaws 2018 but I could not get Jaws 2018 to load with using the hotkey. Never had this issue in my life. Always just went into the icon under properties and put it the hotkey after installing the latest Jaws update. Well the guy from FS told me to delete the hotkey then press enter. Then go back into properties and go to hotkeys and press ctrl + alt + J then press enter. I always just press J and it put everything in the hotkey field the ctrl + alt + J. So doing it his way worked on both my computers. So I don't know why it did not work the way I use to do it for many years. I guess he taught an old dog a new trick.

Howdy Mr. Ed, See if doing the steps below will get J2018 to start with the computer as the default version of Jaws. 1. Open the control panel and navigate to the Ease of Access center and press enter. If you press, Windows key + R, to open the Run dialogue and type, control panel, and press enter, this will put you in the control panel. 2. In the Ease of Access Center, tab to, Use the computer without a display link, and press enter. 3. Now tab to the installed versions of Jaws, and check the version you want to start with the computer, now Apply and Okay your way out. Hope this helps. Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool.

I can't tell you exactly where because I don't have a Widows 10 computer at this house, but when we get back home tomorrow, if I remember, I'll get the exact directions for you. Take care. Mike.

Just set 2018 to start. That setting will override the setting in all other versions. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List <jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com> On Behalf Of Mr. Ed Sent: Wednesday, May 23, 2018 9:31 AM To: JAWS-Users-List 2 <JAWS-Users-List@jaws-users.com> Subject: [JAWS-Users] Another issue on which Jaws is starting Hi All, Also I have notice that when I start my pc and jaws come on automatically it starts Jaws 18 instead of Jaws 2018.
