NUANCE DRAGON NATURALLYSPEAKING 13 INSTALL
I check my updates install the important ones and of course I forget about the optional. I figure no problems here with the "install" and my son can get to using the program. I move on to my laptop that is kept up to date, scanned for viruses, etc. Okay I figure I am paying the price for not keeping his laptop up to date because its always sitting in his room and I am too frightened to enter. Hmm no I don't have a previous versions installed, updates installed, what the 'beeeeep'. It appears to hang when "copying files" and sits there for over an hour. Updates installed, computer restarted, restart the "install" and away we go OR so I thought. I managed to find some posts about which updates this program needs other than the one stated before (.net). Lots of searching and no joy on a fix so I move on to manually updating. I run some virus scans, do some housekeeping and move on to updates. hmmm it figures and it's my fault for not keeping his laptop updated so I pay the price of time with M$ updates. I discover his laptop needs over a hundred updates. It halts after 10 minutes and states it needs some M$ updates installed (.net framework 4.5). Install walks you through the usual then appears to begin the "install". I started out on my sons computer ( Windows 7 home 64-bit). Read on if you aren't already removing this from your cart.
YOU CAN avoid the aggravation I endured but if you enjoy reading about pain then move on to the cons section!Ĭons: This software is an absolute nightmare to "install" and causes problems with your windows updates. Pros: Not really a pro but was a lump of coal from Santa with a free headset.
