NVDA offers the option to be run as a portable app, so no installation is required (and thus no admin rights). Simply run the installer, or see Installing NVDA () for detailed information. We recommend the normal over portable installation (see below). Normal installation offers automatic startup on boot (optional), a keyboard shortcut to start/restart it, association with proprietary files, etc. A bearable voice synthesizer (optional).
After using it for a while, you will respect it as a firm but fair teacher. Because of its firm compliance to standards, it is the desktop screen reader of choice when developing accessible websites. NVDA (Non Visual Desktop Access) is a lightweight and reliable open source desktop screen reader.
