My JawsII w Janus/Ada95 stopped working after doing a virus scan on this laptop. So seek free gnat 95 binaries for Windoze. Where to download please. I use EmEditor which worked great with back’n’forth with JawsII project interface, but not anymore.

Hello m8vl4,

The Janus/Ada compiler is proprietary and at some point in time you should have received a link to the zip-file that contains all the files needed to install Janus/Ada and also an installation key. Maybe you still have this in your e-mail somewhere?

To download versions of the GNAT Ada compiler I would go to:

> **[Releases · alire-project/GNAT-FSF-builds](https://github.com/alire-project/GNAT-FSF-builds/releases)**
>
> Builds of the GNAT Ada compiler from FSF GCC releases - alire-project/GNAT-FSF-builds

To download a version of the GNAT Community Edition that was discontinued in 2021:

> **[Commercial software solutions for Ada, C and C++](https://www.adacore.com/download)**
>
> AdaCore is the leading provider of commercial software solutions for Ada, C and C++ — helping developers build safe and secure software that matters.

Best regards,  
Joakim

Yes of course, but repair option did not work, so await reinstall with printed instructions at my main lab, not remote laptop here.

Thanks for other links.

Turns out a rogue batch file startuppp.bat was tricked into running by rogue MS powershell.exe (welcome to the Eiffel dot .NET guy Bertrand Meyer).  
Problem fixed by reinstalling encrypted JawsII.
