I believe, and someone on list correct me if I'm in error, removing shared components also removes any customization you have done to Jaws. Now if you are using JAWS with all default settings and it is the only program you have from Freedom Scientific, then I guess it would not make a difference.

If the only version on the computer is uninstalled and you install a different version on a computer with no Jaws installed on it is this not like a new installation?

Civitello Sent: Wednesday, December 02, 2015 1:06 PM To: Jaws users list Subject: [JAWS-Users] Updating Jaws Version 17.0.1010 I tried to update Jaws Version 17.0.1010 to Jaws version 17.0.1214. At about 70 percent I got a message saying that the installation could not be completed and that I would have to run the repair of Version 17.0.1010 and try the update again. As I have Version 17.0.1214 in my download folder could I just uninstall Version 17.0.1010 and install Version 17.0.1214?
