Hi Lars,

I found out something interesting as well.
I just started brltty with the run-brltty.bat file.
As a normal user as well as a admin.
brltty came up and found my device (handy tech braille star 80).
I was able to use the console.
When i start the brltty windows service that is installed by the setup program 
it seems not to find anything nor beep or display brltty 6.6 which it does when 
brltty starts up.
So it seems we have something going on with the service.

Greetings,
Simon

Thank you for pointing this out. On Windows 11, I've only tested BRLTTY 6.6 
with a Handy Tech Modular Evolution braille display in cmd (console). I'm only 
able to get it working if I start cmd as administrator. Otherwise I get 
permission errors.
