Hi John,
I solved it. The problem was that incomplete instructions were given in the
original post.
If you have the portable version of NVDA, as I do, because I use it on keys
etc, you need to not put it directly in the synthDrivers folder but in
\nvda\userconfig\synthDrivers, then it will work.
All the best
Steve

Hi Steve, I wonder where the problem is. So with all the extracted files in
the synth driver folder it still can't see it. I wonder if you'd have more
luck if you extracted directly into the NVDA synth driver folder. Just a
thought.
I've just looked in my NVDA synth driver folder. In the synth driver
folder in the NVDA programme files folder there are only the Espeak files.
In the synth driver folder under user configuration there are only the svox
pico files, namely svox-pico-data, pico.py, pico.pyo and svox-pico.dll.
John.

Hi John,
Yes, I downloaded a single Zip, then extracted it into the correct folder.
So underneath SynthDrivers, there was another folder called svox-pico-data,
which contains 12 files, plus a few DLLs from that synth.
Still not being detected by NVDA as far as I can see.
All the best
Steve

Hi Steve, having reviewed your post I notice you refer to a single file, not
a number of files. You are extracting, aren't you? Don't just put the
downloaded file in the synth driver folder. You unzip it and put the
extracted files in there.
John.
