Shared components
Maria Campbell <lucky1inct@...>
I know this question has been asked many times, so here it is one more time!
When uninstalling an older version of JAWS, is it or is it not best to leave the shared components, rather than doing a full uninstall? I know that some times a full uninstall creates problems in newer versions. So am I answering my own question? -- Sunny Day Maria Campbell lucky1inct@...

Nicely put. Yes, you've answered your own question. When removing an older version, you need to retain shared components if you intend to keep an existing later version on your system.

However, if you're having problems with the later version, you may end up removing all existing versions and reinstalling the one, or ones, you wish to keep using. But it doesn't sound as though that's the problem. If it were, you'd remove all shared components as part of your effort to get rid of all traces of JAWS before starting over.

If you install a newer version of Jaws, but want to keep an older version of Jaws, you do not want to uninstall the shared components.

I will never uninstall the shared components of JAWS, based on a recent
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
experience. It is my thought that as long as you use any updates of JAWS, you do not want to ever uninstall the full version. Recently, I was going to disconnect an old computer, so thought that I needed to uninstall the full version of Openbook. I wanted to still leave JAWS as I had other files to delete etc. When I uninstalled Openbook, I ended up with no speech, so, couldn't finish deleting files. I thought JAWS would still be okay, but not the case. Barbara Hansen

Lisle, Ted (CHFS DMS)
That's exactly the problem. The video handling changed, and certain programs (such as some Office programs) did not work properly. The only way to restore full functionality to 10 was to uninstall 11 completely, then reinstall 10 in repair mode. Same went for 12.
