Re: Code Factory Blues

First, why do you want to find another voice if all
you need to do is reregister the Code Factory Voice, especially if you want
Eloquence? As far as I know, registration is free. I believe, though
you can check, that if you run NVDA once a month with the voice, you will remain
registered. So just running it for a moment with the Eloquence voice
should be all you need to do.
As far as changing to the Microsoft voice on your
computer is concerned, are you using the SAPI version of Eloquence or the
Add-on? It may affect how you run the Microsoft voice. I'm not sure
I can tell you just how to switch but answering my question may make it easier
for you to find out.

I'm once again trying to learn NVDA after many years as a JAWS user running 64 bit Windows 7 Home. One of my problems is that my attempts keep being interrupted by one thing or another and I have to start virtually all over from scratch. I purchased a couple of Code Factory voices with one being an Eloquence that sounds reasonably like the Eloquence with JAWS that I'm used to. Apparently, I upset Code Factory by not loading NVDA frequently enough for them since the voice switched to something else from Eloquence that it had been on the last time I used NVDA and I apparently have to re-register the Code Factory voice again. This will be the third time and I'll be in search of another synthesizer since I have a problem understanding eSpeak or whatever the current one is. Could someone please remind me how to find out what the current one is? During one of my previous attempts, I found that the SAPI voice for Win 7 was easier to understand than eSpeak, but can't remember how to switch. Could some kind person please provide instructions? I'll check out voices again when I can get NVDA more understandable, but does anyone know if there has been anything new other than from Code Factory in the last several months that works with Win 7? I seem to be running NVDA 2018.1.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Margaret
