Re: JAWS Becomes Sluggish When Writing Emails in Outlook
Randy Barnett
Hi Rick is there a reason you have to use Outlook? Can you try Thunderbird instead. And see if these issues go away.

Hi, There was only 5 add-ins so I ignored them. I got the graphics accelerator box checked and the other unchecked. I'll let you know and thanks for your help.

These can sometimes monkey around with Outlook. Obviously you don't want to disable an add-on that you need, but you'd be surprised what gets enabled. Poke around and turn off what you don't need. -----Original Message----- From: main@jfw.groups.io <main@jfw.groups.io> On Behalf Of Bill White Sent: Wednesday, May 1, 2019 4:31 PM To: main@jfw.groups.io Subject: Re: JAWS Becomes Sluggish When Writing Emails in Outlook Hi, Rick.

Disable hardware graphics acceleration check box checked Play animated GIFs check box not checked I as you can see, also have the JIF's disabled and in general, I have pretty much anything having to do with visual indicators or animations turned off wherever I find them. I believe there's another place in Outlook options where you can access the hardware acceleration checkbox, but this is the one I know of off hand. Cristóbal I hope this helps you, Rick.

It does emit air when it does this. I have to type out my mails elsewhere and then copy-paste them, which is a real pain. I also have to keep going to desktop or elsewhere and then coming up, for the short respite of being able to use Outlook seamlessly.
