Voice narrator update#
That said, this update is gradually rolling out to Insiders on the Dev channel, therefore you may not be able to see it just yet. It now matches the media controls which you see in the Quick Access Settings when logging into your PC. Microsoft has also updated the design for the media control flyout you see on your Windows Lock screen while playing media in the background. This is due to a known issue in this build which hopefully Microsoft will fix in another flight. Note: If the voice is not automatically changed to the new natural oice, restart your computer. The new natural voice will now be your text to speech guide. Now select the downloaded voice from the drop-down menu under “ Choose a voice.”
