If you are going that route: If you aren't happy with the results, there is the option to undo your last restore, which does just that and brings you back to where you were before you did the system restore. Pick a recent date/time, that is, one just before you made the mistaken deletion.

Right, well I'm a little scared to do this in case I make a total stuff up with everything.

Well that would depend. If you say uninstalled JAWS then did a system restore JAWS will be back on as your system was reverted to a date when JAWS was present. Same is true if you installed JAWS but you then reverted to a date where JAWS wasn't present. -- Chris Hallsworth E-mail: [email protected] MSN: [email protected] Skype: chrishallsworth7266 -------------------------------------------------- >From: "Kimarain" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, July 21, 2009 9:31 AM To: <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] outlook express. > What about jaws itself?
