What are speech.hlp Error Messages?


General speech.hlp Runtime Errors

speech.hlp file errors often occur during the startup phase of Speakonia, but can also occur while the program is running. These types HLP errors are also known as “runtime errors” because they occur while Speakonia is running. Here are some of the most common speech.hlp runtime errors:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Windows\Speech\speech.hlp

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.


Most HLP errors are due to missing or corrupt files. Your speech.hlp file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Speakonia), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, speech.hlp file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Speakonia, system crash while loading or saving speech.hlp, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or malware infection. Thus, it’s critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

Download speech.hlp Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying speech.hlp to your appropriate Windows system directory. CFS-Technologies typically does not release Speakonia HLP files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing speech.hlp and all other HLP files for Speakonia. An incorrectly installed HLP file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
