Windows 10, NVDA closing when leaving the command prompt by pressing alt+f4

[MichelSuch]

Under Windows 10, you can close a command prompt by pressing alt+f4 like any other windows.
Unfortunately, this also closes NVDA.

I can confirm this issue. Some additional observations

• NVDA doesn't shut down when closing cmd with exit
• Problem occurs with CMD both with and without administrative privileges

This has been brought up a few times before, initially in #1682.

#5343 also brought this up and I closed it as a duplicate. However, while we probably can't fix all cases of #1682 (e.g. clicking the close button), it's more likely that someone might press alt+f4 and we can at least intercept that key.

One thing to investigate is whether we can hook the function Windows calls to force our process to exit. If we can do that, we can fix #1682 completely. Otherwise, we'll just intercept alt+f4 for Windows 10 as noted above.

@michaelDCurran did this work in #5343, so I'll reopen that and close this as a duplicate.

Hi,

Yes, it works fine for me.
