Well I've just tried a similar thing with a client who unfortunately doesn't
understand the INSERT key thing and pressing and holding it in combination
with other keys so I've found a way that works for him but might not work
for everyone. He is using OpenBook and this is what I did to help him.

1. Pin OpenBook to the taskbar and it becomes Windows Key + 1
2. Pin NVDA to the taskbar and it becomes Windows key + 2.

3. When he wants to scan he does insert+Q and then enter to quit NVDA
4. He presses Windows key + 1 to launch OpenBook.
5. When he has finished working with OB he does Alt+F4
6. He presses the Windows key + 2 to get NVDA started again

I know it sounds long winded but trying to explain the insert+shift + s just
wasn't working neither of any of the other combinations for him and the
above is only simple for him but might be of use to others.
