| A term used to describe the
process
of installing a software
program
that has already be installed. This step is commonly performed when
a program has worked in the past but now is experiencing issues that
cannot be resolved. To reinstall a program is to simply install
the program exactly how you did in the past. Reinstalling a program
should not erase
any data
or personal files
created by that program but may reset the program settings back to default.
If a reinstall does not work properly, a user
may also choose to uninstall
that program and then install the program again; in some cases
this can resolve issues that a simple reinstall will not. It is
important to realize that some uninstall options
may delete
personal data. If you are ever concerned about losing your data you
should backup
your personal data before uninstalling and/or reinstalling a
program.
