How do I turn off the voice. (Not the ATC voice) but the guidance voice when I hover over (with mouse) any menu. It is driving me crazy ☹️

That's probably some sort of Visual Impairment Aid, so I guess you should look for a menu that is dedicated to this kind of stuff.

How to turn off the “hover guidance voice” in Microsoft Flight Simulator

That voice you hear when hovering over menus is not ATC and not part of normal game audio — it’s an accessibility feature called Screen Narrator / Text-to-Speech UI narration.

There are two places where MSFS can enable this kind of voice:

1) Windows Accessibility – Narrator

Sometimes MSFS triggers Windows Narrator accidentally.

Check this first:

Windows shortcut:

• Press Ctrl + Win + Enter → toggles Narrator on/off

• Or go to: Settings → Accessibility → Narrator → Turn Off

If the voice stops, that was the cause.

2) MSFS Accessibility Settings

If it’s MSFS’s own UI narration:

1. Go to Options → General Options

2. Open Accessibility

3. Look for:

   • Text-to-Speech Narration

   • Menu Narration

   • Screen Narration

4. Set them to OFF

That voice is the accessibility narrator. Check Windows Narrator (Ctrl+Win+Enter) and turn it off if it’s active. If not, go to MSFS → Options → General → Accessibility and disable Menu/Screen Narration. That stops the guidance voice when hovering over menus.

...for half-baked advice.

Pretty sure the sim does not even have the ability to touch the Windows Narrator settings, but by reposting this it just adds to the algorithm and gives this bad advice to more people.

Settings -> Accessibility -> Narration and audio -> Enable Screen Narrator

This is also available right when you start the sim, I believe there is a direct button to the accessibility settings.
