If you go into the basics dialog under options in 7.1, you can uncheck the box that says run JAWS automatically on startup. Then you can unload JAWS with JAWS key+F4, load the version you want to use, go into the basics dialog for this version and check the "start JAWS automatically" box. Then this version will be set up as your default version.

There's really no harm in installing JAWS 7.1. If you don't like it, you
can still use earlier versions.

James, If you were to do it over again, would you install jaws 7.1?

Anyone who used JFW 3.5 or there abouts will know what I mean about
JFW running for a while, then suddenly either slowing down, or
stalling altogether. Well, after playing extensively with 7.10 for
the first time since installing it, I found the same problem there as
in 3.5. It's most noticeable when switching between applications. If
JAWS is running for too long, I figure perhaps an hour or more, it
starts to take progressively longer to accomplish tasks like
switching between programs. The problem is usually resolved by
stopping and restarting JAWS, but the solution is only temporary as
it happens again after the same length of time. I believe when it was
fixed the first time, it was established that it was a result of a
memory leak. Well, it looks like we've sprung another one.
