I have a desktop computer running multiple versions of Windows and have various versions of Jaws on each.

On the Windows 7 partition, I had full versions and demos of Jaws from version 9 to 15. I recently decided to do a cleanup and uninstall some of the earlier versions of Jaws.

Now, when I try to start any version of Jaws such as the Jaws 15 demo, Jaws will start up, speak "Jaws for Windows is ready", then quit. The activation dialog no longer appears, so I think that somehow the activation system has gotten munged. I've tried reinstalling all the previous versions of Jaws that I can get my hands on, and the same problem occurs. (Jaws on XP, Vista and 8.1 update 1 on the same machine start up as expected.)

Has anyone experienced this problem before and can offer a solution?

Thanks in advance!
