What version of Jaws are you running? Is it 32 or 64 bit and what operating system are you running? Provide me with answers for the questions and I will send you exactly what you need to type into the run dialogue box and all you will have to do is copy, paste it and press enter. Take care.

I did a search for the JAWS executable file, by cutting and pasting what you had in the line, not typing the C and stopping after the EX, but I cannot find the file on my system. What am I doing wrong? -----Original Message----- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike & Barbara Sent: Sunday, May 30, 2010 8:05 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Outlook 2003 Hi Deb; Try the steps below for the most thorough way of repairing Jaws. There are 2 different sets of steps. The steps below are the best, most in depth, and most thorough way of repairing Jaws according to Freedom Scientific Tech Support. 1. Place a copy of the Jaws executible version that you want to repair into the main root of the " C " drive. For example; If you are running Jaws11 most recent you would paste a copy of " J11.0.1447-32bit.exe " into the main root of the " C " drive. To open the main root of the " C " drive, go to the desktop, press enter on My Computer, press enter on Local disk C, and now you have the main root of the " C " drive open. 2. With the Jaws " .exe " pasted into the " C " drive, highlight the " .exe ", and press F2 as if you were going to edit this line of text. now press control + C to copy this Jaws executible, press escape to close the edit field, + and press Alt + F4 to close the C drive. What you want to do is place just the title of the Jaws version into the Windows Run Dialogue box and not the file. If you were to place the Jaws executible into the Run box without copying as you did as per the instructions above you would have pasted the whole file into the Run Box instead of just the title. 3. Now that you have just the title copied to the clipboard, press Windows key + R to open the Run Dialogue Box. Type " c:\ ", Ccolon backslash, without the quotes or spaces and press control + V to paste the Jaws title, press your end key to take the cursor to the end of the title and type in the following " /type repair" without the quotes but, with the spaces . Below is what your line of text should look / read like. c:\J11.0.1447-32bit.exe /type repair Read character by character to make sure you have put in the proper spaces, Forward & back slashes text and Jaws version. press the home key to go to the front of the title and press enter to start the repair. A 2nd way to do the same thing.

It was frozen. Now, I'm wondering if I should do a JAWS 11 repair. I looked in the installed JAWS folders, and I can't find maintenance and I can't find a repair option. What do I do now? Thanks! Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.
