Accessibility Change Voice Typing "Wait time before acting" in Windows 11

This tutorial will show you how to change the Voice Typing "Wait time before acting" on voice command setting for your account in Windows 11.

Voice typing allows you to enter text on your PC by speaking.

Starting with Windows 11 build 26100.7705 (24H2) and build 26200.7705 (25H2), and build 28020.1619 (Canary 26H1), Microsoft is introducing a new Wait time before acting setting in Voice Typing, allowing users to configure the delay before a voice command is executed. This provides greater flexibility for users with varying speech patterns, enabling more accurate recognition whether speaking slowly or quickly.

Reference:

If you don't have Voice Typing "Wait time before acting" available yet in the builds above and would like to try it now, then you can enable it using the command below with ViVeTool.

vivetool /enable /id:58970402





Here's How:

1 Start voice typing (Win+H).

2 Click/tap on the Settings (gear) button on the voice typing menu. (see screenshot below)


3 Click/tap on Wait time before acting. (see screenshot below)

4 Select the Instant (0.1 seconds), Very Short (0.2 seconds), Short (0.3 seconds), Medium (default - 0.5 seconds), Long (1.0 seconds), Extended (2.0 seconds), or Very Long (3.0 seconds) time you want.

5 Click/tap on the Settings (gear) button to close voice typing settings.




That's it,
