How to open JSB file?

An often recurring problem with JAWS Script Binary is that JSB is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open JSB, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the JSB file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install JAWS

In this case, you should first verify that the JAWS application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name JAWS in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file JSB with JAWS. Below you will find a list of applications that support JSB files.

Programs to open JSB file

Remember to download programs supporting JSB files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of JAWS with JSB files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the JSB file still does not use the JAWS program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the JSB file with the JAWS application.

Step 3. Update JAWS to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the JAWS program, it is possible that JAWS Script Binary requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Freedom Scientific, Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the JSB file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to JSB files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our JSB file. However, remember that not every infected JSB file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of JSB file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair JSB file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Freedom Scientific, Inc.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted JSB files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move JSB to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the JSB file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file JSB to close. However, some background programs may block the JSB file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
