My Internet Explorer used to hang up all the time with Jaws, until someone suggested I reset the IE settings in the advance tab. And that solved the Jaws/IE freezes for me.

Is there a dump file for each of these instances, and if so, is there somewhere I can send them where they'll do some good? I mean, it's a relatively old system, about three or four years-old, but I'm running Windows 10 Professional, the latest Internet Explorer, and the latest version of Jaws 2018. Where do I find these dump files, and where do I send them?

It would be potentially very helpful to contact the Support department and offer the Dump File with an explanation of what you were doing when it the loss of speech occurred and how often you are seeing this. These issues are difficult to track down as they happen randomly and most certainly have something to do with JAWS interacting with UIA from Windows. We are making progress on this every day and appreciate your continued feedback and support in tracking these down.

I did not think this keystroke automatically restarted JAWS? I'd better give it a try. Usually I just kill JAWS with task manager, or nowadays, process explorer, since task manager got ridiculously slow and basically unusable lately. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Adrian Spratt Sent: January 29, 2018 10:48 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws and freezing I'm not sure it's been mentioned in this thread, but when I experience freezing for a few seconds, I press JAWS key+Windows key+F4. This command almost always restarts JAWS within another few seconds. I believe it helps to first alt-ab out of the application where the freeze occurred. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of George Marshall Sent: Monday, January 29, 2018 10:41 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws and freezing Hi Dave: I have only JAWS 17 and JAWS 2018 on my computer at this time, I would have to go out and download 16, but appreciate your Input.
