[il-talk] Tech Question - Context Menu

[Robert Gardner]

Hi Debbie

I don't know the solution, but here's something you might want to try until 
someone else can solve the issue.  Instead of rebooting your computer when 
this happens, try getting out of JAWS, then restarting JAWS.  You will have 
to have a shortcut key to start JAWS if you don't already.

Besides being maybe a quick fix for that moment, if things go back to normal 
after that process, you know you probably have a JAWS problem.
