[JAWS-Users] JAWS what a shame
Hello list Over the past 15 years I spent in access of $2500 for the original JAWS 3.3 and all the upgrades up to the current version 14. Today I tried to instal Office 2013 on my windows 7 laptop as well as on a windows 8 tablet. I could only go through the install process up to a certain stage from where JAWS could not reag the prompts and the JAWS cursor only says blank, blank. I then installed the free NVDA and it could read the prompts and the entire screen and I could complete the setup on both devices. What a shame for a company claiming they have the best screen reader!!! Regards Fanus For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

What is this doing on my list. The guidelines clearly state if you have a problem with Freedom Scientific then take it up with them directly. This is not the place for such posts. This thread is closed as of now.
