Microsoft Speech API for Windows. Available for both 32-bit and 64-bit systems. Tested on Windows 7, 8 and 10.
We have been reported that some computers are not able to use the Speech API. One of our users has provided us with the neccesary registry keys to fix it (thank you, Javier). It is provided ‘as is’, and you are advised to use it under your own responsability.
