I have Win 7 but have jaws 13 and we have jaws 12 at work. The computer will absolutely not talk while it is doing this update. Thanks.

In fact JAWS usually you can continue working while updates are downloading/installing. When they are done, you do need to reboot.

On my pc all and any updates will happen around 3a.m. when I am not on,but then I do leave my computers on. sugar Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. ~ Hebrews 11:1 `Be Blessed, Sugar -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Judy Sent: Saturday, January 04, 2014 9:45 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] automatic windows update and jaws Hi, all, I find that whenever windows is doing an automatic update JAWS will not allow me to do anything else. It is especially bad at work, since when automation does a big update, JAWS is still on, I can press a key and it will talk, but it won't allow me to do anything. This means I can sit there the rest of the afternoon doing nothing. I have tried the jaws cursor to see if there are any directions on what to do to no avail. This happens at home, but I don't have to do anything in particular at that time, but it is very aggrevating not to be able to do anything at all while this is going on. Sorry if this has been covered. I delete things according to subject lines, so may have missed something. Any advice or is this just one of those irritations of screen reader usage that must be endured. (smile) Thanks.
