Microsoft says the automatic-start checkboxes are for launching Voice Access every time you start your computer.
Checked against its source on October 16, 2026
In the source's own words
“automatically launch voice access every time you start your computer”
Set up voice access, Microsoft Support, n.d., Launch voice access.
Open the original- What it measures
- Microsoft's tip on the setup page. It introduces both checkboxes.
- What it does not show
- The tip describes the intended behavior. Microsoft's page does not say what happens after you switch the feature off, so a ticked checkbox is the likely reason it comes back (our inference).
