Well, instead of running a batch file, why not just use the dump command? all it is is JAWS key Windows f4.

Hello Robert, First of all, thanks for the batch line, which I'll save in a text file as you suggest, although whether or not I establish a way to run the command will depend on my getting a little more clarification. I sometimes exit Jaws and relaunch it when it's misbehaving in ways that I suspect (often correctly) may be fixed if I just do this. But all I do is Use the Insert F4 command, which provides the unloading Jaws/are you sureyou want to quit Jaws dialogue. And then I launch Jaws again using a hotkey, my preferred way which works fine with no key conflicts (someone should tellthe person who expressed concern about this that there's some sort of command that will display all your hotkeys so you know what they are), and everything functions just fine again. I mean, if you don't mind the myriad of eccentric behaviors Jaws 9x displays on my system. But that's another issue entirely. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that I've never encountered a situation where I had reason to suspect something was malfunctioning because Jaws wouldn't release its hold on some blocks of RAM. I wouldn't know thedifference, to be honest, as I'm not sophisticated enough. But I'm not awareof having any mysterious problems that make me wish I knew how to tweak something about Jaws and RAM. Given the above, can you see whether I might have any use for this batch file? Thanks.----- Original Message ----- From: "RAWest" <rawest@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, June 23, 2008 2:40 PM Subject: RE: KillJaws It is a line of code in a batch file you can create to clear jaws from memory if there is a problem. echo off taskkill /F /IM jfw.exePut that into notepad and save the file for example KillJaws.bat on to yourdesktop. I believe earlier versions of jaws when unloaded did not remove themselves from memory. Robert To find me you can do the following.
