Hi Trish There is only one copy of the shared components that is used by all versions of JAWS. If you delete the shared components for any one version, you have deleted the shared components for all versions and none of them will work.

I always get confused but I believe in the past I always made sure I removed the version of JAWS before that versions talking installer or JAWS went silent when I went to uninstall the versions that I'd already removed the talking installer Al -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Trish Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2015 12:48 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Uninstalling Jaws Thank you, I wish I had read this before I almost had a mini heart attack. It's just so unnerving to hear jaws in his drunk mode and stuck, thanks to window's update window popping up. I didn't uninstall the shared components, I didn't uninstall J13 either, sigh I do like it through the programs/features better though. I did uninstall j12 talking installer, don't ask me why that was there when not even j12 full version was, that's an embarrassing mistake on my part. I typically like to have just 2 versions on my systems only, so I needed to do some clean up here. I was fretting after rebooting, I wouldn't have speech this was cause of my first attemp going through the jaws uninstaller, drunk jaws says...your 40 minute demo has expired, well what the heck, I have full paid version here, so dunno what that was all about. Thankfully j15 came back talking after reboot, so I just went through P/F, and heck didn't even loose speech while that happened, huge relief! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alan Robbins" <arobb...@blindhandyman.net> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2015 11:09 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Uninstalling Jaws Trish, I do not believe it really makes a difference. The important thing is whether you want to uninstall the shared components. Personally, I always choose no to this because if there are other programs relying on those shared components they will not work correctly. If anyone else on the list has other information, or does not find what I am saying correct, please clarify.
