Course stuck at quiz question

I have a couple users who are experiencing issues on quiz question slides in my Adobe Captivate (2017 Release 10.0.0.192) course.  This has not been a widespread problem.  Currently there are 3,600 successful completions and I've only been made aware of this problem happening to two different people.

Here's what's happening:  The user can get through the main portion of the content with no problems.  As they arrive on the first question slide they can read the question, select their answer and press the submit button.  The immediate feedback does not show up and the slide does not progress to the next question as they continue to click on the slide or press 'y' to continue. Essentially they are stuck at that point and cannot progress.

I have removed their enrollment and had them start over again.  They have restarted their computers.

Playbar on question slides is disabled to prevent skipping. The course has been published as TinCan and is working fine for thousands of other people as I mentioned above. These users are using the same hardware/software that most of the other company is running.  Windows 8, Internet Explorer 11

Any suggestions/ideas would be greatly appreciated.  I have to assume this may have something to do with their workstation configuration and not the content since so many other people have been able to successfully complete the course but I just can't figure out what would cause this type of behavior.

Does the same thing happen to the same user each time, or only on that one occasion?

Yes, it does happen each time.  I have been able to view his workstation remotely and was able to observe this happening repeatedly.

And is there nothing you can see about his OS version, browser or browser version that would make this user in any way different to others in your organisation?

These issues are sometimes due to some corruption on the user's profile on that particular PC.  But if another user (or an admin user) logs onto the same PC, the issue may not present.  The actual cause of the problem may not be possible to determine, but it can sometimes mean the only way to resolve the issue in a corporate setting is for the user to get a new profile created on his PC.
