I believe the reason this question arises is that many JAWS users report
receiving a JAWS repair instruction after downloading via the update
feature. As a result, I use that part of the JAWS menu only to find out if
there's anything new, then go to the FS website to download.

no it is not necessary to run a repair first just do a check for updates. if
the update fails then just go get the full version from the freedom
scientific page and install it over what is already there.  That will work
no repair necessary.  Just a big download.

 Hi list,
 a friend sent me 3 emails today from a list he is a member of it is jaws
only, and they were all explaining  that now before getting in any Jaws
update they run a repair first, surely  we should not have to protect
ourselves from Jaws updates or enhancements! I have just had my laptop
cleaned off and finally registered all the software again and shall be very
wary of the next update Regards Dorothy
