    So far, the best advice I have seen is to press Esc button and it will close...still annoying, but don't hold your breath about MS fixing this--it's be going on since Edge was the choice of browsers for Windows 10 so until this is resolved where only right click brings up a pop-up...press Esc.

    I also have a new computer and I get read aloud multiple times in the same sentence.  My understanding is that there is no way to turn it off.  Unbelievable..........

    Please fix this vey annoying problem... Make it possible to disable "Read Aloud".  Very bad judgement by MS to have this pop up as a default setting with no way to turn it off.  How many complaints does it take for MS to react to numerous pleas to get rid of Read Aloud?

    MS needs to wipe read aloud off every computer.  It is truly awful.  I am about ready to buy an apple with software that works!  Can't believe there is no way to disable this terrible "feature".
