Hi Marvin,
Lots to unpick here!
Interesting that the other poster is having so many problems with Windows 10.
I'm finding it works no problem here.
Perversely I think you are actually making the problem worse by running so much
bloatware! Ditching CCleaner and Avast will doubtless free up a tonne of system
resources and avoid some of those crashes. Both JAWS and VS are pretty resource
intensive so it won't take much more on top of that to make the system topple.
For Anti-Virus, just let the built-in Windows Defender or whatever it's called
nowadays do its thing. If you're keeping up with your updates it is more than
sufficient.
For CCleaner, if you insist on keeping it at all, run it manually or on a
schedule, maybe once a week, not constantly.
Missing tray icons:
1. Press WINDOWS+M, then tab, to get to the task bar.
2. Press ALT+ENTER. You should land in a settings window.
3. Tab to "Select which items appear on the taskbar" and press ENTER.
4. Make sure "Always show all icons in the notification area" is checked.
5. Settings take effect immediately so just ALT+F4 out.
Accessible backup - Carbonite comes recommended but can't personally vouch for
it. You could do worse than to just save everything to Dropbox - pay for a pro
account if need be!
Alternatively just copy/paste your folders to an external hard drive once a
week.
I'm afraid I can't really help with your other issues but hopefully this will
get you started.

Hi. Using jaws for windows a screen reader from
http://www.freedomscientific.com and using windows 10 64 bit pro on a Toshiba ;

don't want to have to rebuild all of them again. At least once a day or maybe
more then that windows crhashes, or I get file explorer not responding or
visual studio not responding, and so then I lose speech, and then windows
crashes. So, have got the latest windows updates, latest windows 10 drivers for
my Toshiba. Have got c cleaner and have it moniterring and have Avast anti
virus free, and now some times on the system tray lose the Avast and c cleaner
icon, and then on my internet connection, and with my republic
http://www.myrepublic.com.au in Australia says the windows communication is ;
turned off and have to go in and trouble shoot and fix it at least once or
twice a day. Don't want to have to do a reset and is there a program, that will
save all my compiled and apps desktop, windows universal. And also is there any
good accessible windows back up software, free, and does macreiner and eona
work with jaws. Any help please. This is frustrating and then have to click on
the recovered files in visual studio 2017 community. Any ideas. Thanks.
Just frustrating and then yesterday had to do a windows update trouble

was windows defender. Any help.
