Unfortunately, I have one around I am mostly stuck with because of my 7 machine's issues with keeping its activation in place. I kind of doubt that I would reinstall it, but you never know and I am wondering if I could safely try upgrading that 7 machine to Jaws 17 and keep the option open to reinstall the latest XP compatible version on the XP machine if necessary. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike O'Brien" <[email protected]> To: "jaws-users-list" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, November 01, 2015 8:26 AM Subject: [JAWS-Users] A compatibility question about changing your JAWS 16 or 17 license and SMA from professional to Home for Windows XP > Hi > > In JAWS 16 or later, whether you need a Home or Professional license > depends on mostly who owns the computer.
