Description

NVDA can currently only run on the user input desktop on which it was started. It cannot switch to secure input desktops, which is required for UAC screens and the Windows logon screen. For Windows Vista and later, the Ease of Access framework is used to launch ATs on other input desktops. NVDA should support Ease of Access.

  • Status changed from new to closed
  • Resolution set to wontfix

The service for Windows XP works very well on Windows Vista and Windows 7. In addition, there are some issues blocking the implementation of useable support for EoA. We'll just use the service on Vista and Windows 7 unless there is a good reason to support EoA. Closing as wontfix for now; reopen later if the situation changes.
