Let's find out, with what methods you can enter commands to voice on computers with Windows 7.

The main disadvantage of this method is that the developers are currently not supported by the TYPLE program and it cannot be downloaded on the official website. In addition, the correct recognition of Russian speech is not always observed.

The next application that will help manage the computer voice is called Speaker.

4. Next, the window opens where you can set the name of the application icons in the "Start" menu. By default, this "SPEAKER". You can leave this name or replace any other. Then click "Next".



5. Now the window opens, where the installation of the mark is the set of the program on the "desktop". If you do not need it, remove the tick and press "Next".



6. Thereafter, a window will open where the brief characteristics of the installation parameters based on the information that we entered at the previous steps will be given. To activate the installation, click "Set".

First of all, select the type of action you are going to perform. This can be done by clicking on the field with a drop-down list.



11. The following options will be in discontinuing list:
    • Turn off computer;
    • To restart a computer;
    • Change the layout (language) of the keyboard;
    • Make a screenshot of the screen;
    • I add a link or file.



12. If the first four actions do not require additional clarification, then when you select the last option, you want to specify which link or file you want to open. In this case, you need to drag the object in the above field, which is going to open the voice command (executable file, document, etc.) or enter a link to the site. In this case, the address will be opened in the default browser.

Unfortunately, this program, like the previous one, is at the moment no longer supported by manufacturers and it cannot be downloaded on the official website. Also, the minuses include the fact that the application recognizes the voice command with the text information made, and not according to the preliminary patch, as it was with TYPLE. This means that there will be more time to perform the operation. In addition, SPEAKER is distinguished by instability in operation and may not function correctly on all systems. But in general, it gives much more computer management opportunities than TYPLE does.

The following program, the purpose of which consists in managing the voice of computers to Windows 7, is called Laitis.

To do this, it is enough to simply say the corresponding expression into the microphone. But if necessary, the user can add new collections, categories and commands by clicking on the "+" sign in the appropriate places.

In general, it should be noted that the use of Laitis to control the voice of Windows 7 provides much more PC manipulating opportunities than the use of all other described in this program article. Using the specified tool, you can specify almost any action on your computer. Also important is the fact that developers are currently actively supporting and updated this software.

Method 4: "Alice"

One of the new developments that allow you to organize the management of Windows with 7 votes is the voice assistant from Yandex - Alice.

Therefore, you will have to use only those options that are currently. But Yandex constantly develops and improves this product, and therefore, it is quite possible, it is soon worth expecting new opportunities from him.

Despite the fact that in Windows 7, the developers did not provide a built-in computer control mechanism, this feature can be implemented using third-party software. For these purposes there are many applications. Some of them are as simple as possible and are provided to perform the most frequent manipulations. The other programs, on the contrary, are very advanced and contain a huge base of command expressions, but also allow you to add more new phrases and actions, thereby functionably easily approaching the voice control to standard control via the mouse and keyboard. The choice of a specific application depends on what purpose and how often you intend to use it.
