[Closing NVDA when NVDA + q does not work

for

NVDA+Q rarely works for me.
I am using Windows 7.
I open task Manager with control + alt + delete,
Arrow down until I get to start task manager, and press enter.
If I am lucky I will be focussed in the list of processes so I press N until I get to NVDA.
Then press the application key or hopefully shift + f10 and then select end process.

I will have to see if your way works in Win7

Thanks

Another way you can try to quit NVDA is by:

Press the Windows Logo Key + B (it will move you to the system tray.)
Use letter navigation or arrow keys to navigate to NVDA.
Use either shift+F10 or the context menu button on the keyboard to bring up
the context menu for NVDA.
Select Exit.

This only works if you have NVDA set up to appear in the system tray.
