One of them are real notepad glitch that I will briefly explain what had actually happen.

The second hack is a yet another .vbs code that work well using notepad and old lousy Windows OS.

This vbscript will make your Windows talk what you type. Well its a simple script that everyone can use it to do anything they want. First of all open a text file in notepad and copy and paste the following:

Dim msg, sapi
msg=InputBox("Enter your text","Talk it")
Set sapi=CreateObject("sapi.spvoice")
sapi.Speak msg

Save the file with a (*.vbs) extension, it will create a VBScript File.

Then after clicking the .vbs file, it will prompt you for a text, input the text and press ok.
