By following this tutorial, you will get an option to make your computer speak in Windows 7 right click context:
---

Clicking which will bring a input box:

You can type whatever you want and click OK to hear.
Creating the vbs file to let your computer speak
Open Notepad. Write the following things for making your your computer speak:
Dim userInput
userInput = InputBox(“Type or paste any text in the field below and click the OK button to hear it“)
Set Sapi = Wscript.CreateObject(“SAPI.SpVoice”)
Sapi.speak userInput
The red text can be changed to what you want to appear on the input box.
Save the file as speak.vbs for the example above and do not forget to change the file type from text to All files from drop down menu in Notepad before saving it. Obviously, you can save with any name you like, but you have to change the name in registry file in second step as well.
Double click to test the file. It should bring the input window to make your computer speak.
After this step, you can use it as a standalone program; for that follow the way we mentioned in other tutorials.
Registry file for adding speak option in Windows 7 right click context menu
Place the vbs file created in the previous step at the root of C drive.
Open Notepad, copy paste the following and modify as per your need:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTDirectoryBackgroundshellSpeak]
“Icon”=”C:WindowsSystem32Narrator.exe”
“Position”=”Bottom”[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTDirectoryBackgroundshellSpeakcommand]
@=”Wscript.exe “C:speak.vbs“”
The blue text is the name you want to see in your right click menu. You name it as you like.
The orange text determines the position of the menu. You can use Top, Middle instead of Bottom.
The red text dictates the name and location of the vbs file.
The green text is the location of the icon.
Save the file as Add Speak.reg and do not forget to change the file type from text to All files from drop down menu in Notepad before saving it. Name does not matter here at all. You can save as you like.
Now, double click the reg file and accept the security warnings and you will see the Speak option in right click context menu when clicked on a folder or any empty place inside folder or Windows 7 desktop.
Removal of speak option from the right click menu:
Add a minus sign before the H starts after the third bracket; like [-HKEY_CLASSES…. to all where there is HKEY and save it (with some good name) as reg file and run it. It will break the association; so the Speak option will disappear from right click context menu.
Obviously, you might delete the bat files manually too.
