[jaws-uk] Re: How To Get JAWS Speech Back For A Program If You Accidentally Kill It

Hi Brian I have another sound one for you the Toshiba Satellite Pro, which in fact is not pro had a sound flaw and as mentioned on list this week James Watt had to send patches to me and to Andrew Hodgson who had same Model and same problem what would happen is this after turning the laptop off and turning it on no sound of any kind at all, Windows had become muted, I put up with this problem stupidly for 8 months having to beg sighted help from who ever I could. The shop was not interested and as a friend got it from a small shop who made his computer for him he did not want to take it back as you know Brian in the Uk the person whose hands you put your money into is the person you ask to put it right.
Not wanting to argue I went to Toshiba and James Watt who has a special interest in Vips knew the problem and the patches worked
However Andre being far more skilled than I am by far, and having more sight got the sound back, remember if windows is muted you have complete silence. Now what would you do Brian? This was a good while ago and I cannot find Andrews old Email but if I say the bit I can remember can you or any list member finish it off?
I think Andrew said that problem was always happening at Uni, and what they did was go into Run Dialogue and omitting quotes type sounds and audio devices and so on, it is the so on I forget assuming in complete you find Run,and you may know by guessing what then?

Ottawa Canada

Hi List:

While tailoring my Adobe.jcf file to my liking, I did something I
shouldn't have, probably in Advanced Options like put JAWS to
sleep and killed my speech in the Adobe Acrobat Reader.

Here is how Freedom Scientific Tech Support told me to get it
back without sighted assistance:

1.  Go to All Programs.

2.  Select the JAWS sub-menu.

3.  Select Explore JAWS.

4.  Select Explore My Settings.

5.  Cursor down to the file called the name of the program you
killed your JAWS speech for.jcf.

6.  Press the delete key.  Windows will ask you to confirm the
file deletion.  Confirm you really want to delete it and the file
is history.

7.  Exit the explore my settings of explore JAWS.

8.  Run the program you killed the speech in.

9.  Press insert plus f2 to run the JAWS Manager script and
select configuration manager.

10.  Go and make your desired changes but be extremely careful if
you venture into Advanced Options!

11.  After you've tailored JAWS to work the way you like with
that program, press alt-f4 to exit the configuration manager and
confirm that you want to save your settings before the
configuration manager exits.

12.  Be very glad you didn't kill the speech for default.jcf!
That is a very devastating problem and will probably require
sighted assistance to un-do.

Happy JAWS configuring!

Brian
