Hi, Press JAWS key + number 6 (the 6 above the letter keys) to open configuration manager. Then press control + alt + d to open the default configuration file. Now go to the set options menu and into user options. The third control in there is a set of radio buttons for the typing echo setting. Arrow down to words then tab to ok and hit enter. Now do control + s to save changes then alt + f4 to exit configuration manager.

Last time I was here, (which was around 3 and a half years ago), I had a really antiquated system with an equally ancient jaws. But now I'm back with a much more current setup. So my question. I have J 10 and Windows Vista Home premium. I can't remember how to set keyboard echo to words on a more permanent basis. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. Jill.
