Under Microsoft Windows, unlike other systems that I've used, re-installing software sometimes does correct problems. I don't know why this is the case - registry entries, perhaps, or updates that aren't installed properly.
In general, MS-Windows is very complex. There are plenty of bugs and plenty of opportunities for problems to emerge, especially if you're using a screen reader. I would definitely recommend restore points, system backups and re-installation as problem solving methods for Windows systems.
