Enable or Disable Read Responses in Windows 11 Copilot
Read responses in Windows 11 Copilot let you hear Copilot’s answers spoken aloud.
Copilot is Windows’ AI assistant, using smart technology to help you change settings or manage apps by talking to it. It appears as a button on your taskbar, accessible by pressing the Windows key plus C.
By default, Copilot reads its answers to your spoken questions out loud using a Microsoft online speech service. This article shows you how to turn this speaking feature on or off.
Open Copilot, click the profile icon, select Settings, then Voice. Choose “Automatic” or “Never” under “Read responses aloud” to enable or disable Copilot’s spoken replies.
