How to disable the Read Aloud feature?

I agree this is the most HORRIBLE idea ever. Just got this new computer and yes - about to throw it in the trash. This is just about as annoying as having a virus slowing down your computer to 10% efficiency. How in xx$$@# did MicrSoft not test this properly before they launched it on thousands of computers? I want it gone NOW !

And why won't MS fix it?  And why doesn't MS give a hoot about customer complaints?  No way to fix, unless MS fixes it.  Read aloud came on 5 times while typing this short note.

No one really knows and MS doesn't do anything about it...I use a trackpad and I think when I tap, I get it more than when I use the left click button.  One person suggested Apple next time, LOL, but I wish it could be resolved cause it is very annoying as you said.

Only MS can fix this awful "feature" and they won't, can't, or don't give a hoot.  I will never buy another PC.  Apple here I come.

How do I stop read aloud when sending emails and writing notes?  This is sooo annoying.

Only MS can fix this and they won't, can't, or just don't care.  Sooo annoying is putting it very nicely.

It's annoying to me too. There seems to be lag in keystrokes and navigation.

Since everyone hates this feature, I don't understand why MS doesn't fix it for everyone.  It is truly awful
