Hello.
To have remote Jaws start automatically on the server do the following,
which comes from the freedom scientific FAQ?
1. Start a terminal session and log in to the server.
2. Select the JAWS shortcut on the terminal session desktop and press
CTRL+C.
3. Open the Start menu.
4. Open the Programs submenu (or All Programs submenu if you are using
Windows XP).
5. Select the Startup folder, press the APPLICATION Key, and choose Open.
6. Press CTRL+V to paste the shortcut into the Startup folder.
I hope this helps.
Chris.

Hey guys,
Can I make it so on remote access when I login, jaws will start talking
automatically?
I have to manually start jaws now when I log in.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jed

Hello Louis.
Here are some instructions that I found in the freedom scientific FAQ.
For unloading Jaws for Windows, in particular, user profiles in Windows
2000 and Windows XP. This will allow Jaws to load, so you can have
access to the logon screen and then it will unload when any user has the
shortcut below installed in their user profile.

Question:
Is there a way I can have JAWS automatically disabled for the other
users who don't need it?
Answer:
I have a computer with multiple user accounts. I'm the only one who uses
JAWS. Is there a way I can have JAWS automatically disabled for the
other users who don't need it, but have it run for me?
Other Details:
In Windows 2000 and XP, when JAWS is set to Automatically Start JAWS,
the program normally is loaded before the user accounts list is
displayed. This list allows each individual user to start the system
with his or her own set of defaults, e-mail profile, and so on. Do the
following to disable JAWS when another user who doesn't use JAWS chooses
their account from this list:
Note: These steps should be followed for each individual account. It
will be necessary to log into each account and repeat this process. Do
not do this for the account(s) that will be using JAWS or JAWS will have
to be manually restarted when the system is running.
1. On your JAWS CD, locate the file named JStop.exe in the d:\Tools\Misc
folder. Here, "d:" represents the drive letter of your CD drive. 2. Copy
JStop.exe to any folder that all users will access. One good candidate
is the Windows System32 folder and that location is assumed for purposes
of the rest of this document. 3. Press the WINDOWS KEY to open the
Windows Start Menu. 4. Press P to open the Programs menu. 5. Press S
until you hear "Startup submenu." 6. Press the APPLICATION KEY, use the
arrow keys to move to Open, and press ENTER. 7. When the dialog opens,
press the APPLICATION KEY again and use the arrow keys to move to New.
Press the RIGHT ARROW key to open the submenu. 8. Use the arrow keys to
move to Shortcut and press ENTER. 9. In the Create Shortcut wizard,
first type the location of the JStop.exe file. In this example, you
would type
C:\Windows\System32\JStop.exe (place file here for Windows XP)
C:\WINNT\System32\JStop.exe (place file here for Windows 2000)
10. Press the TAB key to move to the "Next" button and press the
SPACEBAR. 11. In the following dialog, enter a convenient name for the
shortcut. Something like "Stop JAWS" is fine. 12. Press the TAB key to
move to the "Finish" button and press the SPACEBAR.
If you ever need to remove this shortcut so that JAWS will run for all
users, repeat steps 1 through 6. Select the shortcut, press the DELETE
key, and reply Yes to the prompt. The shortcut is deleted.
I hope this helps.
Chris.

Hi List,
I am using XP home and JFW 6.1 and I loaded Jaws under my profile and
wanted it to start automatically. (which it does) But when I uncheck
Jaws
to start automatically under the other user's profile, it also unchecks
it
on my profile. Is there something I can do to make it come up when the
PC
is turned on, but when they click on their profile Jaws does not
load? Much thanks.
Louis
