Well, I haven't tried that strategy yet, but will do so the next time the crash occurs, which seems to be inevitable lately.

It really doesn't seem to be predictable.

It seems that I have narrowed the Jaws crashing issue on my current Windows 7 computer down to the following sequence of events. Jaws seems to crash when I exit Microsoft Word while Outlook is also open. Once this happens, Jaws will stop speaking, and I can't re-activate Jaws either via the usual Alt Control J shortcut, or the Windows R command. The only way I can re-start Jaws is to do a hard shut-down of the computer. My sighted wife says Jaws looks like it is still up on the screen, but she can't do anything to re-activate it either, short of manually shutting down the computer. Does anyone have a sequence of steps to get out of this issue? Does anyone know if FS is aware of the problem?? I did not have this problem prior to updateing to Jaws 18.
