Hi, Thanks for the info. Now I have a followiup question. Most of the files that were backed up are .jcf files that I have created to make jaws go to sleep during certain applications. If I have to reinstall jaws can I just copy and paste them into the folder or is it better to recreate them? thanks fo rall the help.
