Vicky, I'm not sure if you got this or not. But just in case, when you locate the Jaws 11 download link on the Freedom web site, yu are given the option to Run or Save. If you choose Save, you can download a file to a pre-determined folder. Then, yu can install the file separately. However, Jaws does give you the option of removing those files which are used by "other programs" and in that case, you would choose not to uninstall the files. I don't think that Jaws over-writes previous versions when it's installed but what it does do is to turn that earlier version off. It's still there and if you can find the .exe file you can create a shortcut right on your desktop to load either Jaws 10 or Jaws 11. I did that with previous versions anyway because I wasn't sure about the newer version.
But I think you have to actively choose to uninstall earlier Jaws versions. Otherwise, they stay in your computer.
