Hi Eric, Last week, a friend of mine bumped into someone who had the same problem as you seem to experience, in that settings you make in jaws, don't hold from shutdown to next run of jaws. And it is now resolved. We, that is my friend and his friend, and I, have all been looking into the problem. We have checked the permissions on the mac hd volume. We have checked inside windows, to see if somewhere in documents and settings, where jaws stores its configuration data, a rights problem was sitting. Why, would jaws, on other systems, retain its settings, while on the vm it would not. We were starting to think that this was a fusion problem. Even one of the Belgian freedom scientific workers helped debugging the problem one entire afternoon, but no luck. Until my friend's friend, came up with the solution, found by accident.
What you need to do, and this as worked for 2 people already that I know of, is that you reset jaws to its factory default, thereby destroying all your user settings. But, when you reconfigure jaws afterwards, you may find that from then on, jaws will remember its settings. Albeit spelling, autostart, and whatever. Please try that and report back on it, because it seems that this is a nasty jaws bug, but so difficult to trace. To be clear, my friend's friend encountered this same problem on a native windows pc. He passed it on, and now it works for my friend as well. Hth, Paul.
