Dictation with Dragon works on Microsoft 2016, but does not work with Pages

I tried to remove some unwanted Apps and used a third party software (Omni Remover) which apparently removed some other things. It removed Google chrome and Pages. I reinstalled both, but can no longer activate my dictation with Dragon. How do I get Dragon to recognize Chrome e-mail and Pages. I also have a medical EMR (Athena) which was working with Dragon but now is not responding. How do I fix this?

It would not surprise me in the least that Omni Remover got overzealous and removed some key pieces of the Dragon installation and who knows what else? The first course of action is to fully reinstall Dragon from its media and its license key. Don't count on Time Machine to do this for you.


Did Dragon ever work with Pages before the Omni Remover accident, and is there something in the Dragon preferences that instructs it to work with specified applications (e.g. Pages). Apple's application has no knowledge of Dragon compatibility of its own accord.
