- In Control Panel, double-click the Speech icon.
- On the Speech Recognition tab, click New in Recognition Profiles. An Add Profile wizard will appear; follow the directions it presents. Profiles are specific to engines and not all engines support similar functions.
Notes
- Profiles accommodate your speaking style. This lets the speech system know about the sound of your voice, word pronunciation, accent, speaking manner, and background noises. A new profile should be created if you move offices, the noise level changes on a permanent basis or additional people are often present. Recognition Profiles allow multiple users to share the same machine without interfering with each other's setups.
- To open a Control Panel item, click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then double-click the appropriate icon.
