Hi All,
Yesterday, I was doing something and heard Jaws tell me that Add ins was
disabled. I found Add ons, but not add ins. Would you all please let me
know as to where I can enable Add ins? I am running XP & Office 2002 Home,
SP3, OE, & Jaws 9 & 10. Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Alex,
Cid you do your uninstall from the programs menu or from the control panel?
I had a similar experience with I think it was 7 and I ended up using
sighted assistance and literally removing all things jaws from my hard drive
and starting with a clean install.

Becky is correct, it's just a convenience is all. If you do not like it just
turn it off. Personally I am thrilled about tandem, because my thinking Dave

I believe it's something to do with the display settings in XP about menu

You need no scripts, it is working fine so too, even you check all update
