Hello Daria

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Forum.

From your description, it appears that the read-aloud feature is not working in Microsoft Word.

Don't worry, here are a few steps you can take to resolve this:

• Open Run (Windows + R), type regedit.
• Go to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Word\Options
• In the right pane, go to ReadAloudSignInErrorCount
• Delete ReadAloudSignInErrorCount or right-click, select Rename, and rename it to ReadAloudSignInErrorCount-1.
• Close Word and reopen it.

I hope this helps. If you need further assistance, please let me know.

Have a nice day.
