>brlap is enabled and run-brltty works in a window. 

You shouldn't be doing both since that'd mean two brltty processes trying to control the same braille device. If you're using enable-brlapi then check service.log, and if you're using run-brltty or debug-brltty then check brltty.log.

>On the combibralle is the text "no windows in foreground".

That confirms that one of the brltty processes is communicating successfully with the braille device. That message - no windows in foreground - would have to do with how the Windows screen driver is seeing things.

>If i start the Brlapi-0.8.4.win-amd64.exe in the "python" directory under
>../brltty/ a setup starts and did not find the python 32 bit version and
>did not compile something.

Unless you're actually using BrlAPI via its Python bindings, that shouldn't matter.

>python 3.8.7 32bit ist installed. It is to find under the C:\Users\...
>python\python38\.

I think it'd be unlikely that something at the system level would be looking there.
