I wonder if a system restore might be in order. Not a guarantee it will fix the issue but might be worth a try, though I would imagine that you, Mike, have already thought of it...

If yes, the first thing I'd do is run a JAWS repair, something I don't normally recommend. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike B. Sent: Thursday, December 29, 2016 12:42 PM To: Jaws-Users List Subject: [JAWS-Users] Unexpected Jaws Verbalizations Hi All, A friend is having the following issues, & can anyone make any suggestions on how to fix the problems below? using JAWS 16, I've been experiencing some weird behavior lately. in a slightly higher pitch, JAWS will spontaneously say the number of blank spaces followed by a pause before some text within a sentence and sometimes at the end of a sentence. JAWS will also speak in a deeper and slower voice, like when JAWS runs out of breath when reading a long continuous stream of words. for example: after Bellarc Advisor finishes it's updating and analyzing and finally displays it's report, reviewing line by line, JAWS will say 3 spaces, The information on this page was created locally on your computer by the Belarc Advisor. 3 spaces, Your computer profile, 3 spaces, was not sent to a web server. Copyright, (deep and slow voice), 2000-2016, back to normal voice), Belarc, Inc. All rights reserved. reloading JAWS does not clear up this occurrence. it happens on no particular website and reading local HTML documents. I think this is only happening to me and not a wide spread issue. I've checked the text analyzer setting in the default and browser configuration settings in settings center. it is off. I've also checked my speech and sounds scheme, which is set to classic. unloading and starting JAWS with default settings clears up the above problem, but starting JAWS normally exhibits the problems, but the configuration settings are no different as opposed to when the problem occurs. any suggestions as what to do to troubleshoot this annoyance?
