   speech.speak welcome
   
   Note: You can change the text “Hello Slave. I’m your master.” as per your liking. Make sure the inverted commas are present.
3. Now, save the notepad file as welcome.vbs. You can use any name, just make sure the file extension is .vbs.You can test the file if it works or not. Just double-click on the file and the sound will start playing. Else, error message will be displayed.
4. Now, if you’re using Windows 7, you can type “Startup” in the Start Menu search to locate the startup folder. If you’re using Windows 10/8, press Windows+R to open the RUN dialog box. Now, type shell:startup and press enter.
