Windows 10: Blocking Microsoft Translator

Timelord4646 · Jun 10, 2019

I had to use a topic that was closest to this as Translator was not amongst the options.

The security and privacy issue with Translate the Web, Microsoft's online translator, concerns people using the service to bypass a ban on my website in order to view it. The ban is IP based and using the translator avoids this ban. However, trying to deny the translation website from referring people to my website is also not working. I need to know what I have to do in order to stop Microsoft's translator from accessing my website. This is rather urgent as the person at the bottom of it is harassing me having already tried to get my site taken down for frivolous reasons trying to gag me. The best solution is to stop him and his friends from getting to my website, and your service is allowing them to do so.

Bing translator with windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am sorry to know that you are facing issues with Windows 10.

I do appreciate your efforts and time. Do not worry, will assist you with the issue.

Let me keep you informed, to translate any text through Bing translator in Internet Explorer, you just have to follow two simple steps as follows:

Select the text you want to translate.

Right click on the selected text and select the option translate with Bing.

As of now the option to set Bing Translator to the Edge is not available.

I suggest you to use the feedback app in the insider and send your thoughts directly to the team building Windows.

Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.

Microsoft Translator launching Neural Network based translations

Microsoft Translator is now powering all speech translation through state-of-the-art neural networks.
All speech translation apps that use this service, such as Skype Translator and the Microsoft Translator app for mobile devices, are now using neural network technology. Furthermore, the technology is available to all developers and end-users who want to use the Microsoft Translator speech API to integrate the technology into their favorite apps and services.

In addition to the nine languages supported by the Microsoft Translator speech API, namely Arabic, Chinese Mandarin, English, French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian and Spanish, neural networks also power Japanese text translations. These ten languages together represent more than 80% of the translations performed daily by Microsoft Translator.

Neural network technology has been used for the last few years in many artificial intelligence scenarios, such as speech and image processing. Many of these capabilities are available through Microsoft Cognitive services. Neural networks are making in-roads into the machine translation industry, providing major advances in translation quality over the existing industry-standard Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) technology. Because of how the technology functions, neural networks better capture the context of full sentences before translating them, providing much higher quality and more human-sounding output.

Even though Microsoft’s use of neural networks for speech and text translation is still at an early stage, it is producing superior translations to what SMT provides. As with any new technology (we’re in the so-called ascent phase of the s-curve), we know the quality improvements neural networks provide today are only a first step towards future improvements. You can learn more about neural network-powered translation here.

By leveraging the scale and power of Microsoft’s AI supercomputer and the Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit, the team was able to release ten languages simultaneously; additional languages will be supported over time.
The ten languages are in production today, and available for users for translated Skype calls, for Windows desktop and the Skype Preview app for Windows 10, and in the conversation feature of the Microsoft Translator app for iOS and Android.

Anyone can directly try and compare the improved quality of these new neural network models by testing translations at https://translator.microsoft.com/neural.

In addition, for developers and enterprise customers of the Microsoft Translator API, the deployment into production of these new models comes as Microsoft Translator becomes available for test and purchase on the Azure portal. To get started with the Microsoft Translator API using your Azure subscription, click here. If you are already a Microsoft Translator subscriber and want to learn how to move your subscription to Azure, click here. Neural network-powered translation is available for developers using both the speech and text APIs:

All speech API calls are neural network-powered beginning today.

Text API calls using the “generalnn” standard category are powered by neural networks for translations between the above 10 languages. Learn more about standard categories here.
