Hi all.
Anybody out there using the current JAWS scripts for Skype?
I run the Skype 8 Electron.exe file and follow the simple instructions but
the scripts are not loading as I can confirm by hitting insert plus q. I
may be missing something obvious so any help appreciated
Here are the instructions for downloading the scripts from Doug Lee's site
wwwdlee.org..
1. Load JAWS if this has not already been done. This will require
administrative privileges on the computer.
2. Run JAWS as the user for whom the scripts are to be installed. This
and the following steps must be performed for each user of the computer who
will be using JAWS with these scripts.
3. Download and run, or run directly, the installer for these scripts
<http://www.dlee.org/skype/electron/jfw_skypeelectron.exe> ; and follow the
on-screen directions. Be sure to install the scripts in the currently
running JAWS version if a JAWS version list is presented.
4. To verify successful installation, type Ins+Q while Skype 8 is in
focus. Part of the JAWS spoken response should be a revision number. If you
do not hear a revision number, the scripts are not correctly loaded.
.
I am not entirely clear as to what exactly instruction 2 involves. Could
this be where my difficulty with the download lies?
I am using Windows 10, the latest update to JAWS 19 and Microsoft.Skype
14.6.
Thanks in advance
Paul
