Hello, A few things I have noticed and some clarifications.* I have no braille device connected at all and I am very unlikelly to get one. My intention was to help mr Martin Beran to get his braille voyager working and learn a bit about brltty in the process.
* If I start run-brltty.bat it also exits right after the launch.* My install of windows is so called international one. It installed with en-gb locale and I have then added slovak language support through the regional settings control pannel applet. By examining brltty log I have noticed it's looking for en-gb locale. I have investigated that and I have found out there is a system wide setting in windows that configures default codepage for non unicode aware applications. i have reconfigured this setting from english great britain to slovakia slovak republic through the control pannel. * It did not help with this though, the debug log you have asked for is attached.
* Is there something else to try?

Hello, Answers inline. Dňa 9. 12. 2022 o 3:17 Dave Mielke napísal(a):This is a typical Windows UAC Yes/No prompt. If I grant it it continues with elevated privileges.[quoted lines by Peter Vágner on 2022/12/08 at 23:36 +0100] Thank you. This has been helpful. A few questions:Is this a yes/no prompt? Do you get the elevated privileges or do you continue without them.* Start the setup: windows asks for elevated privileges,Can you confirm for me which brltty.conf file (i.e. the full path to it) gets written by the configurator?brltty configurator window appears, Ichoose Driver: auto and port: USB, then later opt to install libusb driver.It generates file at C:\Program Files (X86)\brltty\etc\brltty.conf This is with 64 bit edition of Windows. I gues it would be C:\Program Files\brltty\etc\brltty.conf with 32 bit edition of Windows.Yes I have checked date modified of this file and it corresponds with the time I was running the setupI'm assuming, then, that it's this brltty.cobf, i.e. the one that's part of the install hierarchy, that the configurator is updating. I'd appreciate it if you could confirm this.and am trying to run file run-brltty.bat. * I receive an error like thisbrltty.exe: cannot open file: //etc/brltty.conf: No such file or directory * Okay, perhaps there's a way around it so I then run .\bin\brltty --help and also inspect the bat file which I can modify by adding -f "C:\Program Files (X86)\brltty\etc\brltty.conf" inside so the brltty can find the config file.* However while trying to start the service I am always receiving error likethis no matter how much I am trying. Error 1067: 'The process terminated unexpectedly'* Then I have opened services applet, navigated to BrlApi service and added the following to the arguments entry fields in the service properties window:-f "C:\Program Files (X86)\brltty\etc\brltty.conf" -L "C:\Program Files (X86)\brltty\svc.log"So it can find its config file and also it can output what's going on intothe log.The log is brief but hopefully gives enough pointers on what needs changing.The log I see is: iconv open error: UTF-8 -> CP0: Invalid argumentThis log is a warning, and not fatal. Could you please add -ldebug so that we can hopefully see where brltty is atually failing?Okay, thanks for the hint, I will post back with a new log shortly.
