DecTalk sapi5 is free but doesn't sound much like original decTalk, don't know what they did to it. and decTalk access32 works fine in windows 10.

Hi

Dectalk Access32 was originally sold and serviced by Hinter Joice, which is
now Freedom scientific.  But I doubt that it is still available from them.
There was also a version sold by GW Micro, the makers of WindowEyes.  But
JAWS quit allowing that version to be used somewhere around Jaws 11 or Jaws
12.
Dectalk Access32 from Freedom Scientific works fine in Windows XP.  But as
far as I know, it will not work on any subsequent version of Windows,
(Vista, 7 8 or 10).  So I'm a little surprised that it is still available in
JAWS 16 and 17, which cannot be used with Windows XP.

There are a couple of things that claim to be Dectalk, but to me the voices
are not Dectalk.   The first one is an external synthesizer named Dectalk
USB and the second is a software synthesizer called Dectalk Sapi5.  I don't
have any detailed information about either one of these options.

I see that in the synthesizer and braille manager you can choose decTalk
access32 software. do you have to buy decTalk access32, and if so from
where, and how much does it cost?
