If you are consistently seeing a problem with shutting down NVDA, I would
recommend that you report the problem to the NVDA developers. File an issue
at

https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda

A quick search does not seem to bring up this issue as having been reported
so far.

Regards,

Pratik

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.
