There is no answer to this issue. Microsoft cannot say why this happens to
some computers, nor can any other technical support group that I have spoken
to about it. The best thing that I found to help the problem is to get an
external hard drive, and move all of my media, documents, etc., anything
that is not required for the computer to operate, to the external drive.
This greatly increased the amount of free space on my internal drive, and
let the computer run much smoother with less freezes or other problems. You
can pick up a good external drive on Amazon or eBay for a good price, and a
500 GB drive would probably do for most people.

I believe I am having the same problem. Jaws will suddenly state that
windows explorer has stopped working. SometimesI can get it working again
but much of the time I have to reboot. I am thinking of unstalling IE 11
and going back to IE 10 and maybe try reinstalling Ie 11 later. Can
someone tell me if I uninstall Ie 11 will I automatically go back to IE 10?
I think so but I want to be sure.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Windows Explorer Locks
Lately, when I have been using Jaws 16, when I got into something like Drop
Box, open a folder and arrow down, everything locks up.
It has become so bad that I have to use another screen reader. I would
rather use Jaws. But, it is just too frustrating to use Jaws.
I have read all kinds of reasons for why windows Explorer can lock up.
But there doesn't really seem to be a reasonable fix for this issue.
I hope that someone might be able to help solve this problem.
