Hey Doug, Regarding your old keystrokes verses apps stepping on you by hijackingthem with their newer upgrades: Could a simple fix just be for you to add the windows key to the keycombos? I only offer

Hey guys, first of all I'd like to thank Doug because I did not know these step for copying the file location. We always learn something new, lol! Jean, be careful to one thing which I noticed. I

Hi Doug, I was able to do the change, but still no luck. No prefix key, the only thing that happens when you press the key in question is that Jaws pronounces it. Same in Jaws 18. I wonder what

Ah, I thought Notepad would be an option there... so here is one alternative: Open "Explore My Settings" for your JAWS version using your Start menu or Start screen, or otherwise navigate to that

hi Doug. I need to know how to do this. First, do you have to open this file in notepad? How do you do this? If I type Application key on a JCF file, and go to open with, notepad is not in the

Yes, the jcf. The jss would contain a default value, but the jcf is where any updates to it go for a user; so the jcf setting will override the jss value for that key if found.

Hi Doug. I'm using Jaws 2018  under French Windows 7, Jaws key plus F1 twice opens the Scripts user guide, and Jaws key plus Q reports the revision number, which makes me think that the script is

My guess is it at some point got changed to something unexpected. You can always try editing it in skypeelectron.jcf. If you've tried to change the key, there should be an MKCSOptions section in that

Hi Michele, For the moment, I tried to switch to QWERTY and type the left bracket sign, just Next to the P right< But even this did not

Hey Jean, could you please tell me what keys are you trying to press? In other words, how do you make a left braket in French? Bye! Barbuz

Hi Doug and all, I just installed Skype eight and its corresponding script. Still under French Windows 7, it works okay but I cannot use the prefix key nor can I change it. The scripts seem to be

lol yes, I can see that. that was the very thing I was talking about. but, to be fair, you not only had to accomodate long time users, but new users that were just coming to the platform also, so I

In the spirit of constructive feedback seeking, I wonder which keystrokes? I do know that my Skype 7 scripts made Alt+numbers read chats but that, years after I started doing that, Skype made Alt+1

what I suspect will happen is the client will simply refuse to login and if it does, it'll be limited functionality at best. That might mean that your contact list may not

Will you loose all your contacts if you refused to update Skype? I have my updates for Skype Disabled. I have seen everyonje use their phone for everything.

unfortunately, your unwillingness to update Skype is going to see you without that service when it is finally completely phased out for the older versions. As for the younger

Who cares. I am not willing to update Skype, and it makes things harder for me to use it because I can't do the things like before, and no one can hear me on their end whenever I make a

I am on both windows and Mac, oh, and on my iDevices also and I've had little to no issue with any of them.
