    Preview Voice for Microsoft Helena not working after installing via PowerShell Script


    Hi,I am working with a machine that has Windows 10 Enterprise 2016 LTSB with OS Version 1607. I had to install the Spanish Language Pack and the Microsoft Helena Text to Speech voice via offline Meaning that I had no access to internet. I was able to install the Spanish Language Pack and the Microsoft Helena via PowerShell Script with the language pack cab file and the Text to Speech FOD Feature on Demand. I also see that the Helena entry is present in the registry, both in the Speech and SpeechOne_Core location.In the Settings->Time & Language -> Speech, when I select the Micro

    PowerShell scripts not working with Call operator

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you are facing issues while developing a PowerShell script using the Call operator. I would suggest you to refer the articles

    The Windows PowerShell ISE    .



    However, as the issue is related to developing PowerShell scripts, I would suggest you to post your query on

    MSDN forums    , where we have expertise and developers who are well equipped with the knowledge of developing PowerShell scripts in Windows.



    Regards,

    Selected Text To Speech voice has no effect


    Hi!

    I use restream chat daily to hear the messages that viewers of my streaming type in Twitch and Youtube. It has the TTS feature activated and the voice David (English/USA) selected. Also in the Windows 10 TTS setup window I have it selected.

    Everything worked fine until one day the voice was switched to Helena (Spanish). It just happened and I did nothing. When I reviewed the TTS setup screens in Restream and Windows 10 everything looked fine and David is still selected. But none of the apps can use that voice and all of them use Helena. I tried also with Microsoft Word with no result. The funny thing is that even Restream has no option to select Helena (?)

    Why did that happen? Can I fix it? Any ideas will be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Powershell GPO Startup Script not working

    Hello,

    I wrote a Powershell Script to delete Microsoft Store Apps which works fine when run manually. However I want to run it as a Startup script via GPO on all computers (Windows 10 Pro) in our domain. For that, I created a group policy and added the script under
    Computer configuration>Policies>Windows settings>Scripts. There I added the powershell script on the Powershell scripts tab. I also activated Powershell scripts via Computer configuration>Administrative Templates>Windows components>Windows Powershell>Turn
    on Script Execution>Allow all scripts

    I need the script to be run as a startup script (with system privileges) instead of a logon script as not all users have local admin rights. However the startup script doesn't work. A gpresult shows that the GPO is loaded. Is there anything I'm missing?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    The script:
