How to open JSM file?
An often recurring problem with JAWS Script Message is that JSM is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open JSM, 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 JSM 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
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that JAWS is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name JAWS in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file JSM.
Programs to open JSM file
Remember to download programs supporting JSM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of JAWS with JSM files
If, despite the installed application, the JSM file does not start in the JAWS application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the JSM file with the JAWS program.
Step 3. Update JAWS to the latest version
If, however, after binding JAWS with JAWS Script Message there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Freedom Scientific, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the JSM file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The JSM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the JSM file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the JSM file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected JSM file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the JSM file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular JSM file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Freedom Scientific, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file JSM except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move JSM to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the JSM file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the JSM file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
