Hi, those are very good questions. forgot to answer them so no problem. I had to create a quick batch script to execute a silent install. so basically its installing silently. though i had to talk to every user to stop their work so i can do that locally. i haven't found out how to pack nvda into a msi and roll it out with windows update or others. i am getting now old versions of nvda and a mixed version pool all over the 80 pcs we have here. it took me 1-2 weeks to get all that set up but it was worth it. i didn't enable use current settings on the logon screen. i also disabled nvda completely so no nvda at the login screen and other admin dialogs and no nvda after login. what i do is logging in to the pc using teamviewer or similar software then enabling nvda from the desktop. you need or find teamviewer still useful when admin screens stop nvda from talking to your nvda remote session.

Hello Simon,
Thanks much for your reply.
I have a few questions please, If you don't mind me asking, did you install NVDA silently on all the pc's? Secondly, on the computers NVDA was installed, did you select to: Use currently saved settings on the logon and other secure screens?
Sorry again for all my questions.

Hi,
You can copy a good icon and drop it in every box. that what i had to do. i dropped it into c:\users\public\desktop and from there you can start it then.
Greetings, Simon

Hi List,
Apologies in advance if I am going off topic.
Has anyone gotten NVDA to install silently using a custom config pointed elsewhere?
My question stems from some NVDARemote messages which I've followed from Simon sometime ago, Thanks Simon.
I've setup the config and put it it on the server however,
My problem is that
If I install NVDA with switches like:
c:\nvda.exe --install-silent -m launchNVDA -r -c \\share\NVDA
After a silent install, on the desktop, target of the icon shows like:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\NVDA\nvda_slave.exe" launchNVDA -r
Of course I could modify the icon to point to the config, but I can't imagine having to do this on many pc's within the company?
Any help regarding my issue would be much appreciated please.
Kind Regards
