You're correct on the portable bit, they don't even like running in windows that require admin rights unless you actually run nvda.exe as admin. Installed copies will run fine on the uac screens. When you select to run on the logon screen, you're also setting it up to run on secure screens (because that's what login is).

And, don't really think logon screen activation has much to do with it - this was after had been working in main window/desktop area, and, since run portable version of NVDA, it's not necessarily too likely to cooperate with logon screen startup...?
