Does not work in various apps like Discord and Thorium Reader

[Marc2p]

Hi. I have installed both 64bit and 32bit versions, however it doesn't work in Thorium reader. I have changed the default system voice and tried to change the voice Thorium uses, but it doesn't appear among the available voices.

It also doesn't work when using the /tts command in Discord, although you can't change the voice in Discord, but I thought changing the default voice would work.
I haven't tried in other apps yet

As for now, Chromium/Electron apps are not able to use the voices from this engine. In fact, they cannot use any third-party SAPI5 voice. They only support WinRT/OneCore voices, which are not supported (yet) by this engine, because Microsoft provides no documentation on how to make a third-party OneCore voice.

Related issue: #4

For technical details about why Chormium doesn't support SAPI5 voices, see my comment here.

A temporary workaround is to copy the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech\Voices\TokenEnums to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech_OneCore\Voices\TokenEnums.

You can use the following PowerShell code. Open Windows Powershell with admin privilege, paste the following line and press Enter:

Copy-Item HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech\Voices\TokenEnums\ HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech_OneCore\Voices\ -Recurse

This can make Chromium apps able to use the voices. But I'm not sure whether this will affect other programs that use OneCore voices.

Thank you very much. I will try it and if anything I will leave a new comment. I am not sure if I should close the issue as it does not seem to be an app issue.
