[BRLTTY] Windows, Can't run Brlapi-0.8.3.win32.exe even though I've installed Python 3.1 64-bit and 3.8 32-bit

[shawn klein]

Hi Samuel, I first tried brltty-win-6.4-0-libusb-1.0.exe, then brltty-win-6.4-0-libusb-1.0.zip. I can’t find the driver for the NLS Ereader anywhere, which is why I tried BRLTTY in the first place, as it lists the NLS Ereader in it’s list of supported braille displays. I’m beginning to think it wasn’t the right choice at all. 
When I try to install brltty-libusb-1.0.inf
I get: The third-party INF does not contain digital signature information.
I tried the following instructions to fix that, but it didn’t work:
1. Launch an elevated CMD prompt (run as Admin)
2. Type in:
bcdedit /set loadoptions DDISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
and press the ENTER key
3. Type in:
bcdedit /set testsigning on
and press the ENTER key
4. Try the install again
I didn’t even get feedback from command prompt as I used to do. I think I’m just going to have to wait a year or 2 until more people start using the NLS Ereader, maybe NVDA will get around to supporting it natively. It works well with the IPhone, but just isn’t really supported with NVDA without a lot of headache.
Thanks for all your help, but I think this wasn’t a good option. The NLS Ereader is just too new, and I’m not really getting support for it from the users nor from the NVDA community. The driver is impossible to find, and your driver gets flagged by Windows so I’m blocked from installing it, as drivers from small companies and developers tend to do.
The Ereader doesn’t run a serial com port service for Bluetooth, so it’s not possible to designate a com port number for it in Windows.

In the case when Brltty is installed, NVDA could trigger a start of the
BrlAPI service, when using the portable version of Brltty, NVDA can't
divine when Brltty is. The rule could be that Brltty be unpacked just
within the NVDA directory or something like that. It'd be useful that
some people could contribute this kind of support to NVDA.

Which windows version of brltty did you use? Depending on your
situation, you'd need the libusb or libusb-1.0 version, and install the
filter or the driver, see the README.txt file.
