Speech Recognition - How To Click On An Icon In The Notification Area
Oct 13, 2011
I have several applications in the Notification Area (some call "system tray"). Can anybody tell me how I can access them using Speech recognition?
I do not mean by saying "mousegrid" etc. and drilling down, but wonder if there is a command that I have not found that relates specifically to the Notification Area.

I`m trying to pin a speech recognition shortcut to the taskbar of a Windows 7 system so that the program starts when I click it.At the moment, I can only get as far as creating a shortcut that opens with the `Configure your Speech Recognition` window and I can`t seem to work out where the actual program starts from. I thought if I could find the exe file, I could create a shortcut from there and guessed it`d be in C/Windows/system32 but unless it`s camouflaged, it doesn`t seem to be there.

New to Windows 7, like it a lot, but I have one thing that is driving me batty.On the taskbar, in the notification area, I have many of the standard Windows system icons, volume, power settings, wifi, hidden icons, etc. When I try to access the options in those popup notifications. the notification disappears so quickly that I don't even have time to get my cursor on it. Maybe one in five tries I can get on it before it folds, but for practical purposes trying to use those icons is hopeless. It seems like the 'puter or the OS is just too fast.I found one crackbrain suggestion to take out the battery (I have a laptop) and to press the power button a few times, and them replace battery and boot. Naturally, that solution didn't work, but I tried it anyway. There is also a suggestion about using the Ease of Use to set a time for notifications that doesn't do it. The notification area doesn't play by those rules. 5 seconds? I can't get 1/5 of a second.

No matter how I try to access the Icon Notification Area to customize hidden task bar icons, Win 7 freezes to a great extent. I am running 64 bit Win 7 SP1.
Under these conditions, when I put my pointer onto the task bar it changes into a hand with a pointing index finger. The Icon Notification Area will not show icons and all I get there is an interminable spinning blue circle.
The Task Manager will not correct this condition and I have to close my windows session manually with the power button. It seems something has been corrupted but I am at a loss. I have run chkdsk /f and sfc to no good effect.
I am running some 32 bit programs including MS Office Pro.

I like to enable the Guest Account on my Windows 7 computer so that my family can also use my PC for simple web surfing.
One thing that I have noticed in Windows 7 is that when in the guest account no network icon appears in the notification area (aka system tray) to tell you the status of the network connection. This is particularly annoying for me as our wireless network connection can be flaky at times (I blame the neighbours!) and it is good to be able to see the status.
Does anyone know how to enable the network status icon in the guest account?

I read on this forum about the speech recognition software on windows 7. So I found it but only by doing a search first. I thought it would be in the program list. I think it is great but I am only learning with it. I am suprised it actually knows what I am saying without learning like a lot of other software out there.
Anyway, thats not what I am writing about. What I would like to know is about the commands it has. I can only find about half a dozen. I have used the help menu but dont get far with that. For anyone who uses it can you tell me where to find the commands or do you have to train it to your own.

I use speech recognition a lot. I think the speech recognition in Windows 7 is great, although I miss some things in it. For those who also have RSI, or just want to use the voice, I found two add-ons that I think is pretty interesting. The first add-on is the Windows Speech Recognition Macros, you can group several speech commands at once with it. The only drawback is clicking anywhere on the screen with your voice. Windows default "mouse grid" takes a lot commands to move and click. For this issue, I found another add-on for clicking anywhere that is pretty fast. It is a tiny add-on called Voice Finger [URL], and by the way I'm using it right now.

I have used speech recognition on my computer before, with a minor issue of it giving me grief over specific words. I haven't run it in a while and discovered it wasn't working right tonight. I thought it was my microphone, and sure enough when I unplugged the mic and ran the tutorial it was back to it's old self. Until I tried to run it in wordpad. I spent no less than ten minutes trying to dictated the words "she lifted"! Even when I finally got the right correction it wouldn't accept the numbers. I tried saying "spell it" but no, I had to manually click on it before it would open the spell it tab. Then it wouldn't correctly spell it either so I said forget it and had to type the thing myself! I couldn't even get 2 words in after typing it myself before it had to correct again. Fifty or more times I tried saying "the lid" and NEVER got the proper words out of the corrector. At this point I am extremely frustrated and angry and I will admit freely I descended into swearing at the speech recognition while attempting to close the piece of crap. Needless to say, now I don't even feel like writing.Now tell me what the ever loving point is to this program if it only works in the stinking tutorial? In trying to save my carpal tunnel from a great deal of typing I only ended up screaming in frustration at the computer and making my throat raw.

I noticed there's some issues with this but could not fine a resolution. When i first installed Windows 7 I ran the Tutorial for Speech Recognition and it worked perfect.I also used it for awhile and it worked perfect , then i rebooted and was installing stuff i dont remmeber what. but since i just updated i installed alot of stuff. I disabled speech recognition to auto-start when windows booted up and ever since i get this error.
When i try to open speech recognition you can see it pop open for a quick second up top and then i get this.
"SPEECH RECOGNITION COULD NOT START BECAUSE THE LANGUAGE CONFIGURATION IS NOT SUPPORTED.....THE RECOGNIZER LANGUAGE MUST MATCH THE LANGUAGE OF THE USER INTERFACE. PLEASE CHANGE THE RECOGNIZER LANGUAGE IN THE SPEECH RECOGNITION CONTROL PANEL UNDER ADVANCED OPTIONS"
Now. i'm not a total idiot and it was set to US the whole time, and this Windows 7 Beta 7000 32 bit English...oh and all the other speech regonistion otpions work such as tutorial and Train the computer to better understand you (yeah i sat there and read the whole thing for about 5 mins and it worked perfect).
I'm not the only one with this issue. i have a Creative X-FI new beta drivers. for windows 7. Nvidia 9600 GT. Q6600 Intel and ASUS P5K mobo. HELP?

I'm quite interested in utilising Windows 7's speech recognition. I set up my mic, done the tutorial, and even trained my voice a couple of times. However, When I click "Start speech recognition," nothing happens! I don't get an icon in the tray, or the program itself at the top of the screen.
I've tried turning off all non-windows services and programs on startup (this was a Vista fix that I found on the net), but still nothing.

I own Dutch home edition windows 7 on my new laptop. There is no speech recognition module that came with the software.Is it possible to use the English version SAPI 5.1 with windows 7? (installing with compatibility mode XP)I use software that only uses English speech recognition, and works best with XP.The SR modules that comes with thr "bigger" versions of Windows 7 gives a lot of troubles with the program, because there are a lot of instructions that works also with the Windows 7 interface.The software i use = London Control (Air traffic control simulation)

I'm starting to use Windows 7's speech recognition program which is proving to be much better than the alternatives, especially Dragon.
However, I can't get it to work with non-microsoft programs. It won't work with Adobe products (Photoshop, Illustrator, iDesign), Open Office, or the Chrome browser. It will work with Wordpad, Expression Web, Live Writer, etc.
Is there some setting I can change? Or is Speech Recognition a microsoft only tool? I'm using the latest version of Windows 7 64 bit on an i5 Asus laptop.

I have just started to use Windows 7 RC1 and it has to be one of the best releases since WS2000 & WS2003.The Sheer performance, sleek finish and the GUI is great for even beginners. Problem I have so far is that WSRMacros will not launch. I have successfully downloaded the msi from MS installed and rebooted, but when executing the application it does nothing.

My notification area always displays all icons and notifications, but when I want to customize those systray icons, for some reason I can no longer use "Restore default icon behaviors" or make any other customations. In window "Select which icons and notifications appear on the taskbar" all the options beneath "Behaviors" are inaccessable (showing 'Only show notifications' in a greyed out fashion). Also, when trying to click on any icon beneath "Icons" nothing happens.
At the bottom the selection option "Always show all icons and notifications on the taskbar" is greyed out and its checkbox unmarked.
When I click on "Turn system icons on or off" I get the correct window ("Turn system icons on or off"), and "Behaviors" are accessable. However, when clicking "Restore default icon behaviors" nothing happens. Clicking on "Customize notification icons" brings me back to the "Select which icons..." window with those non working options.
I have tried Brink's tutorial "How to Hide or Show System Icons and Notifications in Windows 7", but no matter which of the included .reg files I merge, nothing changes and "Always show all icons and notifications on the taskbar" stays greyed out with its checkbox unmarked.
Otherwhise, my system (Windows 7 64-bit Ultimate) runs great, I just cannot make some systray customations that I would now like to.

I have some programs that have I have uninstalled but when I click on customize notification area, they are still in that list.How can I clear the list of old programs?
The notification area also does NOT show my bluetooth icon which I set to "show icon and notifications"It was there before but no longer there. I've tried restarting my computer but it doesn't fix the problem.
Ok I was able to clean up the notification area but it still does NOT show my bluetooth icon while I have a bluetooth dongle inserted in the USB.Whenever I set it to show icon and notification, it tells me that "This notification icon is not currently active. It will be shown the next time it becomes active." But it always showed the icon in the past even when i wasnt using it.I noticed that every time I set it to show icon and notifications, it keeps resetting back to only show notifications when i go back to the customization windows

I have completely removed several apps using Revo Uninstaller so I know its been completely removed, yet somehow it still remains in the Notification Area Icons area...(The place to turn the icons on or off....) Is there any way to clean this up so the old icons from applications that at one point were installed but arent?
