Hi Rich, There are several reasons for what happened but primarily, when you uninstall a Freedom Scientific product, especially jaws, a wizard is activated. The speech in that wizard runs at the default settings of course. If the speech is different from your own personal settings, you'd notice the change immediately. Nothing to worry about though. The fact that it did change the speech is a good thing because it tells me you were using the correct method to uninstall the software.
There is an issue that occasionally arises when you are uninstalling older jaws versions. Some of the files need to be retained and that's why it's recommended that you use the built in procedure for doing it.

Hi all; I have 11.0 and XP home. I was in the middle of un-installing my 10.0 to give me more space on my PC. As I was un-installing, the JAWS speech got very slow and I panicked, thinking I might be screwing up my settings, so, I canceled the un-instal. I still have the 10.0 and use the 11.0 version. Why did the speech get slow during this action? How or should I un-install my older versions? I assume I go to the "ADD or Remove" section and proceed with the directions of un-installing my 10.0. Oh, would this effect any of my merged settings on 11.0? Thank you for any help.
