How do you stop Windows and other programs picking up voice commands

Featured Replies

I am just starting to use FS2Crew and I am having a problem in that Windows is picking up what I say and also trying to interpret it. I have windows popping open trying to switch applications, FSX sometimes minimizes itself, etc., all as a result of my voice commands.

 

All help gratefully received!

 

Thanks,

Hi Stephen,

 

The manual is your friend  :P

 

Microsoft's 'Windows Speech Recognition' system must be OFF prior to loading Flight Simulator.

To ensure Windows Speech Recognition does not load on Windows Startup, make sure 'Run Speech Recognition at Start-up' is unchecked on the Speech Properties -> Speech Recognition page, which is located in the Windows Control Panel.
