NVDA error
Ali Colak
Hello
When ever I update NVDA or one of the addons through the updater, NVDa shuts down but fails to start again. Then when I start NVDA after waiting for a minute or two, it starts\ but there is a small cut in the music and I get this error. usage: nvda.exe [-h] [-q] [-k] [-f LOGFILENAME] [-l {10,12,15,20,30,40,50,100}] [-c CONFIGPATH] [--lang LANGUAGE] [-m] [-s] [--disable-addons] [--debug-logging] [--no-logging] [--no-sr-flag] [--install | --install-silent | --create-portable | --create-portable-silent] [--portable-path PORTABLEPATH] [--launcher] [--enable-start-on-logon True|False] [--copy-portable-config] [--ease-of-access] error: Couldn't terminate existing NVDA process, abandoning start: Exception: [WinError 5] Access is denied. The update is successful, but I don't get why it doesn't restart properly. I am using the latest NVDA with the latest build of windows 11. |

Consider an uninstall/reinstall of NVDA.

I'd installed from a portable coppy could that be causing it? I'd

Two things:
1. Uninstalling/reinstalling NVDA does not wipe all your add-ons, just NVDA itself. Things like your add-ons, dictionaries, etc., are kept in your own %APPDATA% folder. 2. It could be an add-on that's corrupt that's causing this, too. Try starting NVDA with all add-ons disabled. If you're starting from a desktop shortcut, you can edit the shortcut and add the following command line option to the Target box: --disable-addons Just remember to go back and remove that command line option from the Target box once you're finished testing, or else NVDA will always start with all add-ons disabled. -- Brian - Virginia, USA - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 22H2, Build 19045; Office 2016, Version 16.0.15726.20188, 32-bit "Be Yourself" is the worst advice you can give to some people. ~ Tom Masson |
