jeff you are backwards on this answer.
here is the deal, if you only have one version of jfw in the old days and you
ran jfw by checking run jfw first and the registry became corrupted.
then even in safe mode you had no voice.
so as you can see this means it is going to require sighted help to get back
up.
actually their are ways around this problem, if you want to set up an earlier
version of jfw, and i think their is also some other ways around this that can
be done in dos, that i am not going to cover.
bottom line if you do not run jfw first you do not need to know, if your job
requires you to doso contact hj on how to deal with this.
so it is possible to fix it, only a hassle.
so the start up option is prefered.
or just use hot key.
