Jim, "This happens while I am constitently using the computer with no pauses." does not matter - as long as an application is pausing long enough JAWS can react.

Yes, I know the contact information for F S support, thank you. I am just asking for more of us to make F S aware of this frustrating issue. You know, The more, the merrier! Love God! with your heart, mind, and soul, that you might be blessed reaching His goal. Love your Neighbor as you would yourself, God will truly reward you with good health. Love God, your neighbor, as you love yourself, you will then be spiritually balanced with wealth. Love His Word that proceeds from His lips, then reflect on the heavens where God sits.

JAWS 17 just shuts down and restarts when there is no activity for a certain period of time. This is "normal" (note the quote marks) behavior for JAWS 17. A feature that I sincerely hope they remove as soon as possible, as it really ruins my workday. Let FS know your frustration via [email protected] so they can realize the insanity of this wonderful new "feature" of JAWS 17. I guess my feelings are just a bit transparent...

Last night I was doing research and other things. So, I started out using the latest Jaws 16, and then switched to using the latest Jaws 17. Let me know if any of you have noticed the following intermittent lockup of Jaws 17. This intermittent lockup of Jaws 17 has been doing this from the beginning of the Jaws 17 release. For example. I had the following programs and windows opened. Bookshare, F S Reader 2.0, WLM, personal folders, and on occasion my external back up drive. Using Jaws 16, latest release no issues. Using Jaws 17, latest release, it froze up intermittently six times or more in a little over an hour. The freeze lasted for 10 to 15 seconds, this is very frustrating. For example: When going into the search edit box on Bookshare, Jaws 17 intermittently freezes for 10 seconds or so, you can do nothing until it speaks. When pressing Control+N, for a new message in WLM, same thing. When pressing Control+R, to reply to a message, same thing. When pressing the escape key in F S Reader 2.0, to go from my alphabetical list of books back to the current book, same thing. When pressing ALT+f4 to close a program, or pressing Control+W, to close a window, same thing. When pressing ALT+Tab to switch From one program to another, same thing. When in the settings area, going from one screen to another, same thing. Again, this is an intermittent Jaws lockup, very difficult to reproduce with any regularity! But never-the-less, this is a very frustrating issue with Jaws 17. Again, this has been this way since the first release of Jaws 17. This is why I went back to using the latest Jaws 16 on my w-10 computer. Do any of you use Jaws 17 older version or the latest version, regularly on your w-10 computer? Have you encountered this Jaws 17 intermittent lockup, which last for 10 to 15 seconds? If you have, please let me know, also, please let F S Support know about it. Again, very hard to reproduce this problem when you wish to reproduce it. But it continues to intermittently pop up again and again in Jaws 17. I do not have this issue using Jaws 16, so, I know the issue is with Jaws 17. Any feedback on this issue would be appreciated. Love God! with your heart, mind, and soul, that you might be blessed reaching His goal. Love your Neighbor as you would yourself, God will truly reward you with good health. Love God, your neighbor, as you love yourself, you will then be spiritually balanced with wealth. Love His Word that proceeds from His lips, then reflect on the heavens where God sits.
