Hi Tom, Try resetting your IE. Here are the instructions below. How to reset IE 11: I would recommend re setting IE. Here are the steps to do that. 1. Open IE 2. Press alt + T for tools menu. 3. Press up arrow once and you should be on options. Press the enter key. 4. Press shift + Tab and you should hear General. 5. Press the right arrow key until you hear advance. 6. Tab until you hear reset button. 7. Press enter on the reset button. 8. A dialog box will come up. Press tab once and you will hear something about checking this box to delete personal information. Press the spacebar here to check this check box. 9. Tab twice to the reset button and press the spacebar. Wait a few minutes then close IE and reopen it. Now it should work like new.
Note: checking the box about removing personal information will not remove your favorites in IE. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of my mail Sent: Friday, December 15, 2017 12:20 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Internet Explorer or Jaws? I like a lot of people have been having trouble With IE and Jaws. This evening I fired up an old HP PC that I picked up for $100 a while back. It had a fresh install of the latest Windows 7, IE 11 and Jaws version 15. It works like a charm on the Internet, no crashing like my Dell PC with the same configuration except for Jaws witch is Jaws 2018. I will have to use it for a while but it looks to me like the problem I have been having is Jaws 2018.
