A strange but certainly inconvenient problem with this update is that it
won't authorize on either of my systems running a hardware dongle. I have
a
lap top with an ILM key on it and it is not having any problems at all,
but
my towers both a 32 and 64 bit systems lost their license. I removed the
update and put the version from last month back on and the dongle works
again on the 64 bit. After lunch I'll take a crack at the 32 bit which my
wife uses. I just told her over the phone that I plan on getting her
system
back on its' feet so to speak.
Has anybody else encountered this issue? Possibly an email to tech
support
is in order, not sure right now exactly what course of action to embark.

A complex system that does not work is invariably found to have evolved
from
a simpler system that worked perfectly.

Enhancements in JAWS 17.0.1806 (April 2016)
The following is a list of improvements made between the JAWS 17 March
2016
release and the April 2016 update.
To download the latest release, visit the Downloads web page.
JAWS
•Added an "Explore Utilities Folder" item to the Utilities menu located
in
the JAWS window. In Windows 10, this enables you to quickly open the
folder
where you can explore various JAWS settings folders, launch the
Synthesizer
and Braille Manager to add or remove speech synthesizers or braille
displays, remove product activation, and more. Previously, you would have
to search for "utilities" in the Start menu to locate this folder. This
menu item is also available in Windows 7.
•In Windows 10, resolved an issue where JAWS would unexpectedly become
unresponsive for several seconds when switching between apps.
•Addressed a reported issue where text in the Virtual Viewer could not be
copied with MAGic running.
•Resolved a customer reported issue encountered on certain computers
where
the HJPad spell checker was not loading the dictionary.
•In response to requests from customers who are creating domain specific
scripts, added a new function, GetElementXML, which returns the XML for
the
element at the Virtual Cursor.
•When using the Windows touch keyboard, resolved an issue encountered
with
some international versions of Windows where Touch Typing was not working
as expected. With Touch Typing, a key is typed when the finger is lifted
from any of the keyboard buttons. In addition, if a triple tap is
performed
on a keyboard button, the panel of alternative characters now opens as
expected.
Braille
•In response to customer feedback, if you type "girlfriend", "boyfriend",
"girlfriends", and "boyfriends" using contracted braille, these are now
properly translated.
•Resolved an issue where JAWS would sometimes not detect a Focus Blue
braille display after bringing the computer out of hibernation.
•Resolved a customer reported issue where the contents of the Windows
Secure Desktop or the Windows Lock screen were not being shown in
braille.
•Resolved an issue where the Placement of Status Cells option in the
Startup Wizard would become unavailable if it was changed to None. This
option should only be unavailable if a braille display that does not
offer
status cells is connected.
Microsoft Outlook
•Addressed a reported issue where the checked or unchecked status of
shared
calendars was not being shown in braille.
•When pressing INSERT+H from a message list, resolved an issue where
Outlook specific hot keys were not being displayed.
Microsoft Word
•If the data in a table cell contains line breaks, JAWS now shows the
first
line of data up to the first line break on the braille display. To review
the rest of the line in braille, users can press the Next Braille Line or
Previous Braille Line commands or pan through the text.
Web Browsers
•In response to customer feedback, JAWS no longer limits the amount of
text
it will read in an alt attribute for an image.
•Addressed a reported issue where empty combo boxes were being skipped
when
navigating by word in Smart Navigation. JAWS now announces "space" when
encountering an empty combo box while moving by word.
•Resolved an issue with ARIA alerts not always being spoken after
selecting
a button to submit the values from a form.
•If the aria-required attribute is used on a combo box, resolved an issue
where JAWS was not indicating the required state in speech or braille
with
Forms Mode active.
•If JAWS is in the middle of a Say All on a web page in Firefox and a
focus
change occurs, such as the page opening a dialog box, JAWS now announces
the focus change instead of just stopping the Say All with no indication
of
what happened.
•JAWS now recognizes ARIA switch controls and correctly announces the
on/off state as they are toggled using the SPACEBAR.
•JAWS now supports tables created using the role="table", role="row", and
role="cell" aria attributes. In order for JAWS to properly recognize
these
types of tables, uncheck the Layout Tables Ignore option in Quick
Settings.

You don't have to be crazy to run a list like this, but it does help.
