I think the problem is mostly to do with the merge itself, sometimes you can
get a dodgey one now and again. However it could also be that the installation
itself is not sound.
Try this and see if you get back the alt+tab operation, then we should know
what way to go forward.
1 Open start menu and go to "run" and press enter on it.
2 Type;
jaws710 /default
3 Press enter, you will get the Jaws window popping up, this means the
command line is valid.
4 Press insert+F4 and then enter, this removes Jaws so you have no speech.
5 Hold down windows key+R and then press enter. This should start Jaws
again with it's default settings, ie. pre merged state.
Test the alt+tab and see if that works. If it does then it is the merge that
is faulty and you could retry it. Let us know then I can give you steps to
properly revert Jaws back to standard settings so you can re-do the merge,
don't try the merge as it is because it won't work.

Subject: [jaws-uk] Problem with Jaws 7.10
Hi There,
I have recently upgraded from Version 5.0 JAWS to Version 7.1. I used the
merge settings button and brought all the settings over. My machine is
Windows XP SP2 and fully updated and in classic mode correctly.
Most of JAWS works fine, but things like ALT-TAB don't read out what each
window is. So if I have Word and Outlook Express open and i ALT-TAB Jaws
just says " Alt-Tab" and doesn't read out what program I have alt-tabbed
too!
Very annoying! :)
Can anyone help me at all? Is it to do with scripts not loaded? I don't
understand?
Thanks
Joe
