[JAWS-Users] removing an old version of jaws
Hello everyone, I am considering removing from my computer a very old version of jaws that I don't use any more. Would I uninstall it the same as i would any other program? Someone told me that it would ask do you want to remove shared files, and I was told to say no to this. Is that correct? I have openbook on my computer, and jaws 6. I want to remove jaws 4.02 from my computer. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!

I'll have to disagree with you on this. It may not cause any problems with your system, but Removing the shared components can cause big problems with Jaws.

If you are also using Open Book, you should definitely leave the shared files on your system.

Also, if you remove shared components, you won't be able to merge settings from an older version of JAWS.

Re: [JAWS-Users] removing an old version of jaws
Lisa, since you're using another Freedom Scientific product (OpenBook), definitely don't remove shared components. Doing so will result in a malfunction of OpenBook that may require reinstallation. Hope that helps.

I stand corrected, however the point is that it still is a good idea to say no! - Original Message - From: Denny Huff [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Monday, September 10, 2007 1:36 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] removing an old version of jaws I'll have to disagree with you on this.
