New description:

 A blind windows user told on IRC that TB 8.0 does not work with NVda
 Screenreader (#27503) and that TB 7.5 updated itself although updates were
 disabled.
 > Please do something with Tor browser 8.0 for Windows acessibility. It's
 not accessible to blind users of NVda Screanreader.
 > I tried install 7.5 but after disable update it started updater. I dont
 know how i can properly disable it.
 and left shortly after. Maybe the option was not obvious enough at first.

 We could (try to improve usability for blind users and) add a checkbox on
 the first Tor Launcher screen to disable updates.
