I am trying to get pyttsx3 up and running on my computer. I did pip install pyttsx3 and pip install pypiwin32 I can see both of them in my python directory.
I type this code in to test it:
import pyttsx3
engine = pyttsx3.init()
engine.say("I will speak this text")
engine.runAndWait()
This is what comes out:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Danny\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\site-packages\pyttsx3__init__.py", line 44, in init eng = _activeEngines[driverName] File "C:\Users\Danny\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\weakref.py", line 131, in getitem o = self.datakey KeyError: None
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I tried the same thing on another computer that already had both installed, and got the same output. Any idea what is going on with the win32com? I have no experience with it and am pretty lost. Thanks.
