I tried the "save as shared" and it wouldn't let me. I think this problem came up because my Jaws 18 default script was modified to allow the printscreen to act like the application key since my laptop doesn't have an application key. When I installed Jaws 2018 a couple months ago I had it import my Jaws 18 settings.
The problem was that when I press the "printscreen" key, I got a message saying something about an unknown call to script. Since I normally use a wireless keyboard that has the application key I hadn't gotten around to trying to fix things until this weekend. I opened the default script in the script manager. It showed the modification I had made to my Jaws 18 default script. I saved the 2018 script and exited the script manager. Now I'm getting the message about the default script not being found. I'm a script ignoramus so have no idea what to do. I would appreciate some easy-to-follow instructions about what to do. Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Fernando Gregoire Sent: Tuesday, January 23, 2018 6:19 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 2018 repair Unless you were modifying this file or installing scripts that make modifications to it, this is rare. However, if you can bring the file in Script Manager with CTRL+SHIFT+D, try using the Save As Shared option in the File menu to see if recompiling the file fixes the issue. This is because JAWS actually doesn't search the default.jss, but the compiled file in binary format, that is, default.jsb. Note that if you have UAC enabled, you will need to run Script Manager as administrator to be able to save into the shared folder. If you were making modifications, these were saved in the JAWS user folder when you pressed CTRL+S. If so, go to the JAWS settings folder for your user (use the Explore My Settings shortcut or go to the path C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Freedom Scientific\JAWS\version\Settings\enu), and delete the default.jsb file in this folder if it exists. If you use JAWS in a language other than English, change Enu for the three letter abbreviation of your language, for example ESN for Spanish. Hope it helps! -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Ralph Supernaw Sent: Tuesday, January 23, 2018 9:04 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 2018 repair Hi, I am getting a message that my default script is missing. How do I get it back? From what I can tell, it's still there (at least I can bring it up in the script manager. Would a Jaws system repair do any good? If so, how do you do one?
