Hello. with apparently the config manager gone, can we still transfer all our JFW11 config settings over to JFW 12 via either of the below 2 means? 1. copy and replace the 'Enu' folder form JFW11 over to JFW12. 2. From the main JFW12 window, use the merge utility under the 'utility ' menu.
If JFW 12 allows us to do either of these to completely and successfully move over all my JFW11 settings then I can pretty much avoid even bothering with the new settings center. Thx.

Hi all. Yes, JAWS 12 is very stable and responsive indeed so far. I think FS would welcome any suggestions in their beta report form. After all technical support is still for JAWS 11.
