Recently I installed an older version of Jaws. Jaws 10 to be precise.

After this I noticed that Jaws 10 was starting when the system started
(At the login prompt).  I am assuming that the installation modified a
registry entry.  I tried to fix this by modifying the Jaws basic
settings using the automatically start jaws settings. in Jaws 13, the
version that I wanted to start with.  This had no effect.  Still Jaws 10
was used at startup.  To Make matters worse, I was being prompted to
update my authorization.  I have looked and looked to see where this
setting is stored and have had no luck.

I managed to fix this by running Jaws 10 and adjusting the
automatically start jaws setting in Jaws 10.  I specified not to run
Jaws at startup and specified to never run Jaws for my user id.

When I restarted my computer Jaws 13 came up at login, and Jaws did not
start again after I logged in.  So all I had to do is to modify the Jaws
startup options for Jaws 13 to run when I logged in.

Can anyone tell me what is going on here?  Can someone tell me if these
settings are stored anywhere and how they can be modified without too
much trouble?

Thanks
