Hi,
If you downloaded jaws, by default it will be on your desktop. If you press
left windows key and j and then press enter, it should come up. If you have
a download place where you put stuff you downloaded, go to that folder and
it will read the filename.

Subject: Re: Repair on jaws 8 How?
hi. The only person who would know that is your technition. This is why I
think it's so incredibly important to at least learn this stuff from the
beginning, because when you're in a situation like this, you're kind of
relying on others for help and that's not cool. ok, if you wanna try and
find the file yourself, do the following.
1. Go to the start menu.
2. Go to the search sub menu. You may have to press your up or down arrow
keys to get to it but it's there.
3. Press enter once and you'll land on the choice that says, for
files or folders...
4. now press your tab key until you hear, all files and folders button.
5. Press your space bar and you'll get an edit box to search your drives.
The file name you're looking for is:
J8.0.423U_ILM.exe
I put that on a separate line so you would be able to read it carefully.
Just use your left and right arrow keys and you'll be able to figure
out exactly how it's spelled.
6. type the file name, *exactly* as it appears into the edit box
that says, all or part of the file name, edit.
7. Now press your tab key 7 times and you'll land on the search
button. Press your space bar, and the search will start. to find
your results, press your tab key and you'll find a list view. it'll
probably say 0 items, but that's only because it hasn't found
anything yet. But with luck it will.
8. Ok, now if you were successful, you found where your JAWS
instalation file is, and now it's time to repair JAWS.
9. Press enter when you're focused on the file. You'll probably
get a security warning, but you can bypass that by pressing alt plus r.
10. Ok, now if things have gone right, the instalation screen will
have recognized that you have a version of JAWS on your machine, and
it's giving you the different options, modify, repair, or
remove. choose the repair option and JAWS will do a repair on
itself. If it asks you to reboot your computer, please do so. Then
when you come back up your version of JAWS *should* be at the factory
defaults.
I hope this helps.
