Re: [JAWS-Users] How can I get JAWS to read more information?
Exactly. The 10-11 transition was a classic example. I had to drop back to 10, and the only successful way to do that was obliterate every trace of 11. However, when I dump 15, I'll probably do it the quick, easy way. I avoided one minor corruption problem by simply redoing the configuration on 16 by hand, and manually importing the dictionaries. Fifteen had acquired the annoying habit of booting up with JAWS following PC--one crash too many. I know you can fix that, but the easiest way is simply not to transfer the faulty file.

When installing a new version of JAWS, and/or uninstalling an older version, I have come to the conclusion that as a general rule, it is better to delete the old user settings on the uninstall, and say no to any prompt about picking up old user settings on the new install. I know that Freedom Scientific will say that for most folks it works fine, and provides the hoped-for result of not having to do the configuration on the new install. The problem is that in most cases when in recent years I have had JAWS issues for which the cause could not be determined, Freedom Scientific tech support would recommend an uninstall and reinstall, and telling me to dump the old user settings. So for these reasons, and as explained below, dumping the old settings can help a lot to keep old problems from creeping in to your new JAWS install.
