Add a "Remove" button that would allow the user to remove the system configuration for NVDA

Reading the recent changes and taking into account that the users NVDA configuration can now be used on Secure Desktop screens, it may be benneficial to add a "Remove Configuration" button, that would autimatically remove this configuration, for example, if they decided that they wanted to go back to using the default configuration settings on these particular screens. Moreover, I'm not sure if the isntaller does this already, but is it required to ensure that the installer also removes theses settings when unisntalling NVDA as well?

I agree removing system config can help, but it might be enough to document in the user guide how to do this. Having said that, the whole system config approach still is a bit complex in comparison what other screen readers do.

What do other screen readers do here? For example, when you first hit the logon screen after booting, what settings do they use?

I know that JAWS uses the speech and braille settings from the last logged on user. Same seems to happen for SuperNova, however I"m not sure whether SuperNova just relies on SAM for it to detect a braille display. Point is that at least using speech settings from the last logged in user would already break for users running Vocalizer Expressive 3.0, since that has per user activation.

It's also totally inappropriate for multi-user configurations, though I'll grant that's probably a less common use case.

Hi,

More than seven years later...

Any updated thoughts based on recent NVDA development?
