Hi Joanne,

The JHook.DLL file is a JAWS helper that is needed by JAWS to perform many core functions. It is usually located in c:\program files\freedom scientific\jaws\jawsVersion. Each version of JAWS has a version of JHook.DLL that corresponds with it. You might have some trouble with a later version of JAWS if you just move the JHook.DLL from an earlier version's list of files. If the JHook.DLL is not showing in the path where it should be located then you probably will need to do a repair of that version of JAWS.

Take care.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] problem with a file called J hook.dll


I deliberately spaced between the J and the Hook so it would sound right, but really it's like this: jhook.dll. There have been some crashes and a sighted friend says the problem is not having this file. I can't find it anywhere in Enu but it's apparently needed to make programs work right. How do I find and install this? Or are we possibly dealing with ... not my favorite thing ... a complete install of all my Jaws versions? I have 10 and 11 and programs are needing it. Any help is appreciated.
