Hello,
I am starting with my question:
Have anyone any experience of using brltty on windows? Perhaps together
with NVDA. And how did you get it to work?
I'm trying to run BRLTTY on Windows 11.
I have installed brltty with libusb 1.0 from the normal installer.
When I try to run enable-brltty.bat I (as some previous poster on this
list) get the following error:
```
brltty.exe: cannot open file: //etc/brltty.conf: No such file or directory
BRLTTY 6.5 rev BRLTTY-6.5+ [https://brltty.app/]
brltty.exe: service already installed: BrlAPI
The Braille API (BrlAPI) service is starting..
The Braille API (BrlAPI) service could not be started.
A system error has occurred.
System error 1067 has occurred.
The process terminated unexpectedly.
```
I don't know what this means. Maybe this is something related to Windows
11. But I tried to run brltty manually with the run-brltty.bat script:
```
$ .\run-brltty.bat
Running BRLTTY. When done, close this window (for example, by using the
Alt-Space menu). The log file is: C:\Program Files (x86)\BRLTTY\brltty.log
brltty.exe: cannot open file: //etc/brltty.conf: No such file or directory
BRLTTY 6.5 rev BRLTTY-6.5+ [https://brltty.app/]
```
But BRLTTY terminates immediately after that message. And my braille
display does not seem to be recognized.
Best regards,
Tage
