Interesting Ted about not touching the registry.
When I was investigating which screen reader to purchase, I got the windows blue screen of death. The Jaws tech said to change something in the registry. The Window-Eyes tech told me how to update the video card.
Like you, I knew better than to touch the registry in Windows 7 and chose Window-eyes. I think now Jaws does something automatically to make screen settings go to Windows basic, or perhaps the video card update I did for Window-eyes made the difference, but no issues with Jaws.
Just glad you confirmed myfeeling of not touching the registry.

So you are suggesting hacking the registry to get speech in safe mode? This
is very risky business. How is this accomplished? Please provide explicit,
step-by-step instructions.

To get sound or audio in safe mode use a registry entry or a USB head set,
to turn on audio!

Unless something has drasticly changed between windows 7 and 10, no
screenreader will work in safe mode. This is because without extensive
modification, Windows does not load audio drivers in safe mode. So while the
screenreader may load, you very likely won't get anything out of it.
