Download  and experience NVDA today! 

NVDA version 2022.3.3

The NVDA screen reader can be downloaded free of charge by anyone. We do this because we believe everyone, especially the world’s poorest blind people deserve access to computers and a way out of poverty. If you have the means, no matter how big or small, please consider making a donation before downloading NVDA. We rely on donations and grants to continue improving NVDA and to ensure it remains compatible with the world’s rapidly changing technology.

Please note: NVDA is only available for PCs running Microsoft Windows 8.1 and later.

  • If you require a version of NVDA which can still run on Windows 7, please download the older NVDA 2023.3 for Windows 7 instead.
  • If you require a version of NVDA which can still run on Windows XP or Vista, please download the much older NVDA 2017.3 for Windows XP instead.
NV Access does not recommend or support running these older versions on newer Operating systems.

Donation Options

If you wish to donate, you can make a secure payment by credit card or by PayPal account. Amounts are in Australian dollars (AUD). Australian donations over $2.00 are tax-deductible.
