Hi Adrian;
Click on the link below for this little program called, File Note.
FileNote_110 Program And Instructions
Program For Creating Text Files With The Same Name as Another File Useful If
The File Name Is Cryptic
http://www.jaws-users.com/programs/Utilities/FileNote_110.html
This program works very well to make notes as a text file with the same name
of the program / executable that you have saved and want to create notes
for. The text file will be in the same folder as the program/ executable
with the same name but, with the file extension of, .txt, rather than, .exe,
. Give it a look and if you have any other questions give me a holler.
Hope this helps. Take care.
Mike

Dave,
I have a similar folder. However, many executable files aren't assigned
readily recognizable names. Do you happen to memorize which file is
associated with which application, or do you have a way of identifying them
within this folder? I've considered renaming some of them, but I worry doing
so might affect installation.

Daniel,
at the expense of consuming my hard drive space, I keep just about every
executable installation file in a folder called "source files" just so that
I have it when needed.

WOW sounds like you had fun! Joking honestly there's nothing worse when
installing a update only to find that it doesn't work or something is broken
in a programme etc. Thanks for the Backup lesson! I'll bare it in mind! Next
time when I get a programme I'll save the file.exe to my harddrive for
future reference. funny enough I have actually got the file programme of WLM
2009 on my computer just in case anything happens!
Thanks
Daniel

Daniel,
When I went back to 12.0.525 after the disaster with 12.0.1158 I had to
remove JAWS 12 completely and fortunately still had JAWS 11.0.1476 on my
machine to use in the interim.
I then located my previous downloaded 12.0.525 and did a clean install.
Then I copied all my settings\enu files that I had backed up before the
disaster to get back to a better place. Key points:
1. Did not use any activations since this is the same computer.
2. Always download the various revisions and keep them safe on your
computer or an external device for later use.
3. Always, always, always, always back up all your user settings files
before installing the next revision of JAWS, just in case.

Hi Dave, just cureious when yu went back to the current version of
V12, because of the thing you didn't like with excel, I was just wondering
about something.
When one does that do they have to lituarly uninstall there jaws
version then update to the current version that is given through the
automatic update feature or just do a check for updates to find it again.
Also this is what I want to be careful with when you went back did you have
to use one of your keys that you get with the product.
In anycase I don't use excel and I have not moved from the current
version I would rather wait until it becomes a release.
Thanks
Daniel
