Re: [JAWS-Users] Temporary loss of speech

Hello Mitch: Do not blame JAWS2018 for that; the fact is that Windows changes are coming at great speed down the pike, so are changes to browsers and websites. Jaws is just trying to keep up. Technology in general is evolving at such a quick pace that it is hard for sighted persons to keep

Re: [JAWS-Users] Temporary loss of speech

John, Agree that it's not RAM. I suspect that since JAWS 17, when they came out with a new paradigm for how it works "under the hood", they began to use some memory space that is often crowded by other applications, or perhaps subjugated in the processing hierarchy. All I know is, that for any
