update on dll issue

The Wolf
 

Hello just for the hell of it I installed jaws 18 along with jaws 2018 and now the nvda doesn't give me the error message

not sure if installing jaws 18 fixed the jaws 2018 dll issue with nvda can any one please confirm this am trying to figure out if I need to send a nvda log with the error that it was giving me

something screwy is conflicting I mean I got the issue fixed for now but I need to see if I am the only one having this issue if not then I think a bug needs to be filed.

if I am the only one running in to this issue  what can I do to help track this issue?

Hi Hank,

It's an odd issue.  It does sound like something perhaps wasn't registered properly when Jaws was installed or uninstalled.  I didn't have a solution and evidently, no-one else here did either as I know you've posted about this before.  Have you asked on one of the Jaws forums?

In any case, I'm glad you've got it resolved for now.

Regards

Quentin.

The other thing I meant to ask, had you uninstalled anything else?  It looks like the issue was a DLL file being unregistered inadvertently and uninstalling something is usually the culprit there.  Microsoft Office particularly is a bad one for that.

Quentin.

Ah well that was my big idea.

I guess since you've got it working now there's not much more to do but leave it and see if it recurs or if it happens to anyone else.

So not clear what the difference is between the two, but to me it sounds like the dll had become unregistered and now its registered again.
I used to get this issue a lot with dlls belonging to the mp3 decoder used by Goldwave when Winamac was on the system. in the end I had to copy another copy to the right place then register that with the system and it has never complained since. My feeling is that its easy to get multiple entries in the registry or delete ones that have path details needed by a different piece of soft3ware. Brian

Which reminds me. A question from our office at the blind society. they are going to move from Office 365 to 2016, for reasons of being annoyed by the former, and wondered if doing this might break any screenreaders sometimes used by volunteers. Being as there does seem to be a history of problems with office, i wondered if anyone had tried this change and whether it went smoothly?

You need to read the item about it on the nvda site. has somebody got the direct link. I've lost it, but there is a utility in windows for doing this in a run box or in the command line. I'll make a muck up of the syntax, so can somebody remind us all?

It was a while back now.
