Dear Anne Thanks for this.
I managed to uncheck this but unfortunately despite this Infovox is still grabbing all my important Voiceover output and preventing me using the Mac. I have tried setting the Default voice to Alex, Samantha , Bruce and Fred but to no avail as Infovox is perpetually intoning this is an evaluation copy of Infovox even after unchecking use additional voice options. I tried rechecking and unchecking but nothing I do here makes a difference. This product is a nightmare and I now regret the day I ever let it on my system. I think my only hope short of a complete system restore is to try and return voiceover to defaults. Would you be able to help here?

Hello David, So, as before, VO Utility and s for Speech. Go right 5 times, go down once, go right 9 times, then press VO-Space. That unchecks Additional Voice Options.
