Hi Linda, That is possible, but not always the case. I have installed Jaws from cd, while running a different version of Jaws at the same time. When the installer starts, Jaws switches to the version being installed. On the other hand, if you are using a different screen reader not from Freedom Scientific, you do need to close it.
