Don't use it myself but here's what the all-powerful AI has to say about it.

  • Open Voice Access settings
    • Say or type: “Open Voice Access settings”
    • Or go to Settings > Accessibility > Speech > Voice Access.
  • Go to the “Custom words” section
    • In the Voice Access settings, look for Custom words.
    • This is where all the words you’ve added are listed.
  • Find the word you want to remove
    • Scroll through the list or use search if available.
  • Delete the word
    • Select the word and choose Remove or Delete.
    • Confirm if prompted.
  • Restart Voice Access (optional)
    • Sometimes changes apply immediately, but restarting Voice Access ensures the word is fully removed.

Sadly, it's hallucinations. There is no "Settings > Accessibility > Speech > Voice Access." and the "Open Voice Access settings” doesn't have any way to list all the words I’ve added:

There is no such thing as Windows 11-22H4.
If you mean 22H2, I would suggest you upgrade to the latest version of Windows 11(25H2) since voice access features are updated frequently.

See if you can access the word via the custom dictionary.

Thanks, it is sadly a different custom dictionary. It's not the custom dictionary used by Windows Voice access.
