At home I browse Fabswingers on my laptop. This morning I was doing this but had taken a break and left my laptop turned on and the page happened to be on a profile I had been looking at. After about 5 or so minutes a female voice started reading out loud the details of the profile, their location, their interests etc.
My guess is that this is a Microsoft AI function kicking in but I have not (knowingly) turned any new programs on.
Luckily I was by myself but if I had left the room to do something and my son or daughter had been in the room it could have been extremely embarrassing. It probably isn't a Fabswingers function but I'm posting the issue on here as I think this is probably the most appropriate forum.
Can anyone advise what I can do to stop this happening again. In the meantime I've turned off the audio but I do need to keep remembering to do this so would like a better solution. I don't know if this AI function works with all websites |

Yes, or never look at adult sites is another solution.
I was hoping that someone could advise me of a way to turn off whatever function caused this so I could continue using my laptop the way I've been doing for the last 20 years. |

Could be something for blind users. Check Accessabilty" in settings. I know a while a ago my phone started acting up like that and I'd accidentally touched some switch I didn't know existed |

"Windows 10 and 11 have a text to speech function called Narrator. You need to enable it though. Is that a possibility?"
I didn't know that existed. I have checked but it is turned off. I have gone through other possibilities in the Settings and can't see anything else it might be |

You only need to press the windows key +control+enter to start it. Is it possible you did that? |
