MASH (Microsoft Agent Scripting Helper)

Link Download: http://bellcraft.com/mash/download.aspx

It works on Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, XP, 8 and 8.1.

Note: It doesn't work on Windows 7.

I have never tried Windows 10, but I've heard that MASH will work on it. The problem is that there will be colorful boxes around Microsoft Agent. To solve this, you need to install Double Agent to emulate MS Agent.

While Microsoft Agent works on Windows Vista, the problem is that all animated characters will use the voice of Microsoft Anna instead of their own voice. Double Agent can be downloaded and installed so that it will emulate Microsoft Agent.

Here is the solution to download Hotfix to fix Microsoft Agent bugs on Windows 7: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/969168

Or download Double Agent from the SourceForge website at: http://doubleagent.sourceforge.net/

You can also use Microsoft Agent in a virtual machine with three hypervisors: Virtual PC, VMware Workstation, or VirtualBox.

If you're running an operating system that is not made by Microsoft (including Linux or Mac), you will need to use Microsoft Agent in a virtual machine (VirtualBox or VMware).

Note: You cannot download TTS Engines. However, you can download them from MASH website archived from Internet Archive.
