No, you are not the only one by a long shot. Open Book users on other
mailing lists have reported problems with JAWS and Open Book itself after
they installed the latest Open Book update. I guess I was just lucky.
Although in my case the Open Book update, 9.0.1695, somehow caused JAWS 16
to revert from the Home Use version in normal, full mode to the Professional
version in 40 minute demo mode, I was able to successfully re-authorize JAWS
16 and restore it to normal without having to repair or re-install it.

Boy, am I glad to see I'm not the only one having trouble with the OB
update. I thought something was wrong with my PC.

Hi David & Gerald,
Well, this new update would not install at all. I must have tried 20 times,
& this is no exageration! Even FS tech support could not get it to install
on this computer. I ended up having to repair Jaws 16 & Openbook to get my
computer right again. Neither update, OB9.0.1695.403 or, OB9.0.1696.403
would install. So, I'm back to 9.0.1543 after around 5 hours of wasted
time.
Take care.
Mike

I'm wondering whether this update will cause JAWS 16 to revert to the
Professional version in 40 minute demo mode like the previous update did.
After installing the previous update to Open Book, I had to re-authorize
JAWS to restore it to the Home Use version in normal, full mode.

Not the first time an update had an update.

A complex system that does not work is invariably found to have evolved from
a simpler system that worked perfectly.

Hi All,
Below is the direct download link for this newest OB 9 update. This update
was released Monday March 7, 2016, at least that's what was told to me by
Freedom Scientific tech support. This update, OB9.0.1696.403, fixes
something from the February update, OB9.0.1695.403. I couldn't find what
this update is supposed to fix from the prior version.

Take care.
