Their newest OSes use SAPI5, and you have to install external software to even use SAPI4 voices.Īfter Microsoft stopped using the SAPI4 voices (after the release of Windows Vista), Speakonia, or CFS-Technologies, basically took control of Microsoft's SAPI4 voices, including Sam, Mike and Mary. Microsoft does not use these voices on any supported OS anymore, and doesn't provide any help or support with these old engines.

Note that Microsoft has never asked these people for royalties while using them in these fashions.
