Hello Sandra,
the installation failed because NVDA was unable to create its desktop
shortcut, for reasons I cannot begin to guess. I can think of two
options:
1. Install without creating a desktop shortcut, then create one manually.
2. Sometimes, switching the NVDA language to English before installing
fixes this problem. If you feel comfortable doing this, it may be the
cleaner option.
Hope this helps,
Felix

Hello,


I'm trying to install NVDA on a new machine running Windows 10 pro 1909.


I'm running the installation file as administrator. I'm getting the message that installing NVDA has failed.


Please also see the log included below.


Does anyone know what the problem might be and how to solve it??


Thanks.


Cheers


Sandra
