You might be on to something. I am using Windows7 at work and most of our data is stored on the server. So frequently while working in Outlook, I get a message that Outlook is not available, and frequently shortly after that I get the JAWS Professional message that indicates that JAWS has restarted. I've been told that the cause of this might be that Outlook or the server is sucking up all of my machine's resources and there is nothing left for JAWS. But rather maybe it is just an issue that things are idle for too long because the server is taking too long to perform a task.

I read this in a w-10 computer book. * Power conservation. By default, an app is suspended within a few seconds if you move away from it. This behavior is particularly valuable on battery-driven systems such as phones and tablets. Apps can be written to run in the background (allowing you, for example, to play music while you work), but this is an exceptional case. This makes sense as part of the problem with Jaws. For example, when I ALT+Tab, away from WLM, and back again. I get the message, unavailable, I have to maximize the screen to see my inbox. Is it possible that this Power conservation built into w-10, has something to do with the Jaws temporary lockup? I guess this would make sense, what do you all think?

However, this still happens sometimes with only two windows opened up. I have tried everything I can think of to correct the issue, with no luck. So, the more of us testing this issue, the better. I think it is something in the Jaws program, I could be wrong. Above my pay grade! Any help is appreciated with this issue.

Honestly on this windows 10 system which is the only one I have so far all is as steady as a rock. Just wondering if we could track this issue down by comparing notes. -----Original Message----- From: Neil Towery Sent: Thursday, February 4, 2016 3:22 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] More testing of Jaws 17 I get the pauses on Windows 10 and Windows 7, with either JAWS 16 or 17. I notified fFS, but got a generic reply. After that, I figured it was my computers.

I wanted to see if it was exclusively with w-10 and Jaws 17 or with other versions of Windows and Jaws 17. So, you have answered my question, thanks. The more of us who let F S Support know about this issue the better. Again, this is an intermittent Jaws 17 lockup issue, hard to produce when you want to show someone at F S Support.

I have experienced the 10 second or more silence in JAWS 17. I at first assumed it was due to having both MAGic and JAWS in the same machine which, of course, run perfectly together. However, I am seeing some instances on this list of the instances of JAWS going silent. I just switched to JAWS 16 and updated to the 16.0.4468 update. So far I believe it is executing more quickly but time will tell if it eliminates the pauses. More later.

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.
