Hi Don It is difficult for me to investigate this at the moment, but you could do a manual backup as follows: From your jaws settings enu folder, copy the file j-tools notes.ini. Copy the folder c:\\ttconsult\text. I think that should do it. That will certainly copy the shortcuts and text notes. -----Original Message----- From: j-tools-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:j-tools-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Don Sent: 07 July 2011 02:12 To: j-tools@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [j-tools] backing up and restoring doesn't work I backed up my shortcuts etc. to a thumb drive drive e, and took it to work. I restored at work from drive e, and when I hit grave l, it said "no shortcuts". How can I do this manually so my shortcuts and text notes are at work as well as at home. Thanks.
