Re: [JAWS-Users] Shut down problem
Hi Tim, I ran Super antispyware and C Cleaner, Check disc then disc defrag. The same problem occurred. I hit windows, arrowed to turn off hit enter arrowed to turn off computer. I heard the tones but, the computer never fully shut down. My sighted wife said the screen said shutting down. after 30 minutes, I had to physically turn off the computer. Thanks for any other tips.

[JAWS-Users] password protect a folder
I went on line, and looked up “how to password protect a folder in win 7”, and it certainly gave the instructions on how to do it, but was hoping a jaws user, using win 7, that password protects folders already, could give me a hand, or at least give me a link to an easier way to do this. thanks, t For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] Backup
My impression from your first message is that you created a system backup image using the default option built in to windows 7. That is accessible to do quite easily. You should have received a prompt at the end of that procedure to create a repair disk which is not explained at that point but that is something you will need to boot the system from to reload the image you just made. You only need to create that disk once and everything I have discussed here is doable by a blind person. The reload process is not accessible, for that you will need sited help. I imagine it is possible to memorize the steps involved in the reload process although I have not been able to do it myself as of yet. Even if that were possible you will need help to figure that out as well. I have done system reloads using that process here and it is quite efficient just not accessible like I said.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Shut down problem
Rich, This used to be pretty common in Xp before SP1 was released. Even so, there appear to be several unfortunately random issues that could be culprits. I am including a link that seems to have a pretty comprehensive listing of possible solutions. I've had this issue myself, but it has become less frequent and it doesn't seem to repeat.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Backup
The backup option we're discussing will restore your computer in the event of an operating system crash or some other such reason you need to recover it IE a virus ETC. Image for windows is still my option of choice as I can do it without any third party assistance, but this method is faster if my wife is here. I am a bit fortunate in that respect but I am a hands on kind of guy who likes to do things for himself. The method image for windows provides is not too much different from what you are doing. The fact is this method will backup to CDs or DVDs which I admit I have not tried as of yet. I believe that is something I will take a look at in the near future. If I do of course I'll let the list know what my findings reveal. I'm feeling the possibility of another tutorial if it works that it can be made out to be a blind friendly project, keep your collective fingers crossed.

Re: [JAWS-Users] backup on windows 8
Hi Lenny, Years ago, when you purchased a computer, it would come with multiple disks which contained the operating system disk, drivers and installed software. Later, manufacturers chose to image the operating system drive once the computer was all set up, and ship the image disks (recovery media) with the computer. Today, unless it is a custom built system, the consumer is responsible for creating their own recovery media by using a utility already installed on the system. This utility is supplied by the manufacturer, and is not a part of Windows. Creating media with this utility is simply an image of the operating system drive as it came from the manufacturer and will not backup any personal files. The image is created from a recovery partition on the hard drive. One of the first things a person should do when they purchase a new computer is create this media. This is the process that Trish referred to me helping her with. Once I have created my recovery media, I prefer to create a basic image of my system that includes Jaws and a few programs that I use on a regular basis, as well as any configurations I have made to Windows. I use Image for Windows for this, and install other software as needed. I don't create an image of the operating system drive with absolutely every piece of software simply because I prefer to keep the image to the minimal amount of disks to make the recovery process easier, and usually by the time I need to use these disks, I don't re-install all of the software I was using anyway. Keep in mind, this is just my personal preference, and larger images can be created to include all of the software you want. Also, if you have a data partition as I do, you could create an image of it as well, but if the data on that partition changes on a daily basis, it would be pointless. I use Karen's Replicator on a regular basis to keep my personal data backed up to external drives. Bottom line, back it up, and then backup the backup.

I only wanted to create the restore and backup dvds. Well in win 8 there is no recovery and backup as on win 7. I need to purchase an external drive for him. There is a feature that will automatically backup files and the desktop to the drive. I did see a few recovery options that can put the computer back to factory or reinstall windows and keep your files and folders. --- Please visit my home page, it is motivational, educational, inspirational with a touch of humor.

Re: [JAWS-Users] How Can I Get Yahoo Classic Mail Back?
I was told a neat trick by a Yahoo Tech who told me to lower your screen resolution down to a 800 by 600 dpi, and the site will automatically switch you back to the old mail style. I haven't really done in-depth experimentation on just how high the dpi has to be before it reverts back to the new Yahoo mail, but, like I said, bringing the screen resolution to 800 by 600 should to the trick for sure. Hope this helps. Scorpio For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
[JAWS-Users] Using the vocalizer voices, can I stop it from saying capital?
Hello, I installed a vocalizer voice, and I was wondering if there is a way to make it stop saying the word capital, when typing a capital letter? I am hoping someone can help me to change this, or tell me if there is a place on the FS web site, that tells how to do this. Thanks to everyone, Allen See daddy ?
