Perhaps you and I are referring to a different change in JAWS 17. Here's what I am referring to, and this stays as I describe in the JAWS 17 release:
The JAWS shared folder, which housed various script, configuration, dictionary, etc. files that come with JAWS itself, is now split up into three folders: The original folder, settings\enu (or use your favorite language code in place of enu), remains present but only contains some files, such as configuration (jcf) files that don't depend on the JAWS language. There is now a Scripts folder where jss and other script files go. This folder is parallel to, not under the Settings folder. Curiously, jsm files also go in this folder rather than in the next one I describe. Inside the new Scripts folder, there is finally another folder for the active language, such as enu. This folder contains files that are language-dependent and part of script sets. I currently see jkm, jsd, and jbs files there. I don't know what specific rules governed where various file types ended up, but I do know that this new structure remains in the JAWS 17 release. This new organization only applies to scripts that came with JAWS, not to custom scripts, such as my Skype scripts. Custom scripts still go in the JAWS user folder, not any of the shared folders.

I reported this problem as a bug and this was confirmed in a personal e-mail to me from the beta test manager. I am aware of the change, but it was not properly implemented until (I hope) today's final release of JAWS 17. -----Original Message----- From: Skypeenglish [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Doug Lee via Skypeenglish Sent: Wednesday, October 28, 2015 4:52 PM To: Walt Smith via Skypeenglish Subject: Re: [Skypeenglish] Frustrated with my return to Skype The location change for script files in JAWS 17 is not a bug but is a reorganization that is part of changes in how scripts will be rendered in non-English languages going forward. If you have my latest scripts, which come with an updated installer capable of handling this change, things should work as usual in JAWS 17. Your difficulty calling Echo123 sounds like an Internet connectivity or bandwidth issue, though admittedly I'm guessing there. -- Doug Lee [email protected] http://www.dlee.org SSB BART Group [email protected] http://www.ssbbartgroup.com "The U.
