To be triple sure, when you say you did this migration, did your verbosity and
voice changes get migrated across as well?
Thanks much

That should do it. I just used this procedure for migrating from a
computer I had on loan to the new machine I just got. If you want to do
it without remembering the entire path, you can hit Windows+r and then type
%AppData%\Freedom Scientific\JAWS\<JAWS version>
Then just copy the settings directory to the same location on the other
machine, replacing the JAWS version number with the appropriate value.
One caveat to keep in mind is if the student has made changes to
default.jss. If so, then problems may ensue if the version of JAWS on
the other machine does not match the version the student was using on
his/her own machine, but apart from that the settings directory is
self-contained.
Hth,
Andrew.
