1. Click Start, select Settings. 2. Choose Time & Language. 3. Click Speech in the navigation. 4. Set up microphone if needed. 5. Select Speech, inking & typing privacy settings. Toggle switch to On in Online speech recognition. Once you've enabled speech-to-text, you can start dictating text in any window or field that accepts text input, including word processing apps, Notepad and search boxes. To begin dictation, open the desired application or window and press the keyboard shortcut Win + H. Start speaking naturally, and you will see your words appearing as text. Total magic! It's important to note that speech recognition will pause if you pause for more than a few moments or if you click in a different window using the mouse. To resume, simply click the microphone icon in the control at the top of the screen. To temporarily stop voice recognition, you can close the control.FAQs
