How do I convince Digital Editions that I don't have JAWS/NVDA running?

Question

Windows 7, DE 2.0We are unable to move from page to page in a document with PgUp/PgDn keys, or by using the scroll bar at the bottom of the pane.  It apears that DE thinks JAWS/NVDA is running.  As far as we can tell, those programs aren't even installed.  Is there a DE installation parameter that drives this?  Or a toggle somewhere that can be used to turn JAWS/NVDA mode off?

If you don't need the screen reader function, try the more reliable older version.

There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0 (and 2.0.1). Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.

(You can have them both installed at once if you like.)

Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.
