I had this same problem.  It was the demo of Code Factory voices for
NVDA add on. Plus, the trial of Code Factory SAPI voices.  I foolishly
tried both then was away from my desktop PC for more than a month.


I don't like that kind of behavior in trial software.


I was not even able to use Narrator because that please register message
was spoken every time I pressed any key.


Asked Microsoft disability answer desk for help through Be My Eyes on my
iPhone to resolve this.


Turned out that Narrator was using the demo voice which has also timed out.


I don't know if I'd been able to fix my self without the help from MS
