Hi all,

Is there a quick and easy way to start NVDA from a thumb drive?

I'm finally experimenting with the portable version of NVDA. My goal is 
to try it on the computers at school, so I can use the computers in the 
classrooms as I lecture rather than bring in my own all the time.

To launch portable NVDA, I plug the thumb drive into my computer, start 
Narrator, go into Windows Explorer, go into the thumb drive, jump to the 
NVDA.exe file, and press enter. I'm sure that, once I've done it a 
couple of times, it'll feel quick. Right now it feels like a lot of 
steps, and if the computer is slow, I can imagine it feeling incredibly 
slow as my students and I sit around and wait for things to load.

Is there a quicker way? I tried pressing Start, then typing run 
e:/nvda.exe or run e:\nvda.exe, but that didn't work.

I read a tutorial on using autorun, but I don't think I can do that 
since I won't have administrator priveleges to set that up.

Thanks for any wisdom.

Ciao
