The message means that JAWS is called upon to execute a particular function which it cannot find at the moment. Like what had been correctly said by John, this issue is a JAWS issue in the sense that JAWS uses scripts to handle most of its tasks. These tasks are allocated a certain script: usually the one that describes the task to be caried out. So if JAWS said it could not find this function, "Important" in our case, it is a temporary problem that has to do with your operating system.

Sometimes when your computer hangs for some time, or when it can not perform as fast as you wish, the operating system may take some time before catching up with you. In fact, this is felt by JAWS most because the operating system would be trying to issue a certain command to JAWS, but by the time JAWS would not be tracking that action.

So like what you did, you can sometimes unload JAWS and reload it again.

Anna, that sounds like a Jaws issue, not a computer issue.  The term  you
used is one that comes up quite often when using Jaws.  I'm guessing of
course, but by the sound of it, there was a message on your screen that jaws
didn't know how to handle.  You did the best thing you could by rebooting.
But messages like that can be really scary.
