Dear Friends, I received this message today, on another list from a person I consider very reliable and knowledgeable about using computers, and JAWS.
I hope this will help some one avoid a problem. With Best Regards, Alan Miami, Florida Alan Dicey, President United States Braille Chess Association - USBCA "Yes, Blind and Visually Impaired People, Can, and Do, Play Chess!" United States Braille Chess Association Home Page: http://AmericanBlindChess.org Last night, I decided to check for cCleaner updates. I downloaded and installed the update, and found out it came together with Google Chrome browser. Although Chrome showed up when I browsed the last screen of installation dialog with the JAWS cursor, but there appeared to be no checkbox to opt out of installing the browser. So, when cCleaner finished installing, I found Chrome on my computer. I uninstalled it through "programs and features", removed the remnant folders from program files, and continued my work as usual. But when I attempted to activate a link in an e-mail message, the following message popped up: This operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator. I checked if Internet Explorer was my default browser. It wasn't, so I made it default. I restarted the computer, but when I entered a link in an e-mail, I still got the same error. Apparently, Chrome makes changes to the registry that don't get undone by simply uninstalling Chrome, and the computer gets stack in the gray zone of "no browser". The only thing that helped was a system restore. Today, I decided to try updating cCleaner again. I figured, I would make Internet Explorer my default browser and only then uninstall Chrome, and hope this would resolve the problem I encountered last night. It didn't work, I still got the error message and had to restore the system. So, unless there is a way to troubleshoot or circumvent this issue, I would recommend to stay away from updating cCleaner. __._,_.___ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
