Re: [JAWS-Users] when you have two versions of jaws on your computer, how do you keep one from starting first?
I was having a problem with this since I have Jaws 11 and installed Jaws 13. I can tell which one is on by the speed of the speech since I have speeded up Jaws 11 quite a bit. Anyway whenever I went to the Jaws 13 shortcut on my desktop all it showed me was the Options tree for Jaws 11. So the help shown was also the one for Jaws 11. I tried going to the All programs list and went to Jaws 13 and then the Jaws choice and got the same thing. To solve the problem I added a k in front of the name Jaws 13 on the desktop. Then I can go to it with the keystroke k. At that point I used Insert F4 to quit Jaws 11 and pressed enter on the jaws 13 icon on the desktop. Jaws 13 opened and I had to choose to use it in demo mode. Then I could change settings for Jaws 13. Since I have to use the demo mode I choose to have my Jaws 11 at startup and to open Jaws 13 when I want to try it on special things. When my 40 minutes run out I can quit Jaws 13 and then use my hot keys Alt control J to open Jaws 11 again. So I assume that if you are actively running a former version of Jaws then you can't start or access Jaws 13 until you exit the earlier version. But I could be wrong but this works for me. Just for the record I am running Jaws 11 on a 64 bit Windows 7 laptop.

Hi All, I now have jaws 12 and13 on my computer. I want 13 to start, not 12. I went into basic options on 12, and unchecked everything in the placed that gives you choices to check or uncheck how jaws starts. When I went to jaws 13, the same boxes that I unchecked in 12, were also unchecked in jaws 13. I rechecked them in 13, and they appear the same in 12 also. How do I keep 12 from starting?
