[nvda] Re: NVDA keyboard shortcut

I think we are at cross purposes. the main problem is that the shortcuts are being put in even if you say not to. I suspect that this may well be due not to the installer, but to the uninstaller of the old version. I do not know in that installer that allows uninstall, if it allows you to leave shortcuts. To be logical, the ideal sequence is, Another copy detected, It will be removed. As you are going to install another copy, would you like us to leave the shortcuts alone.
As has been said, the only way may well be to give an option to say what the shorcut from the desktop is, but I'd just settle for a warning that if its uninstalling, it will replace the swshortcuts anyhow. The odd part really is that if it is deleting the shortcuts, why does it put them in at all if you say not to, you would expect to find an orphaned off nvda, wouldn't you... Or am I talking rot again?

But the thing is, NVDA did not tell you that the shortcut would be
Alt+CTRL+N when installing it. At least that's what it is in 0.6p2...

The reason I raised this was that I altered the shortcut key, and thus did
not want nvda to overwrite my alterations, but it did of course. this is a
bug, but I'd have thought it was an installer bug, myself. I think its been there for some time, as its easy to convince yourself you really did forget 
to tick that box, but in this case I know I did not.
as for another choice, well is it really any easier than  getting into
properties on the desktop and tabbing to the shortcut key and hitting the
letter of choice?

Hello list members. SOme list memeber have been saying that either they
would prefer a different shortcut to start NVDA or they do not want one at
all. I am fine with it personally, but I have noticed that even with the Do 
not create shortcuts checkbox checked NVDA still creates   keyboard
shortcuts. I think maybe if an edit control was added that allowed the user 
to either specify a different keystroke to start NVDA, leave it as the
default, or simply  delete it if they do not want one. I'm fine with it
personally but to each his own.
Thanks
