Windows 10: I messed up my windows registry

Background story: So i was working on a chatbot in python. The module I was using for text to speech was pyttsx3. It used microsoft voices. I wanted to add more voices and use them. So I intsalled Microsoft James via the settings and tried to use it in pyttsx3, but it didn't appear in the list of available voices for that module. After some research on the internet. Someone on stack overflow guided me to this website https://www.ghacks.net/2018/08/11/unlock-all-windows-10-tts-voices-system-wide-to-get-more-of-them/ but instead of telling me to read the whole website, he gave me a summary.


In that summary, he didn't tell me to make a backup for my windows registry, so while I was following the steps, something went wrong. I am not sure what went wrong but now when I try to access the voices available in pyttsx3 using

voices = engine.getProperty'voices'

I would get an error.


I am pretty sure the problem is in my windows registry, as other features in pyttsx3 work well and I didn't always get this error before. This error only came when I messed up my registry.


What I am asking for is how to bring the Voices -> Tokens part in my registry the same way it used to be and then be able to add more voices after installing them via the settings.
