Je, ni salama kupakua STT-CLI?
Faili inapakuliwa kutoka github.com, ambayo ni ya mchapishaji mwenyewe; ExeAtlas haihifadhi wala haibadilishi faili. Linganisha hashi yake ya SHA256 na ile iliyoonyeshwa hapa, au fungua ripoti ya VirusTotal ya hashi hiyo.
Jinsi ya kusakinisha STT-CLI kwa winget?
Fungua PowerShell au Windows Terminal na uendeshe amri ya winget iliyoonyeshwa kwenye ukurasa huu. winget hupakua kisakinishi rasmi na kukagua hashi yake ya SHA256 kabla ya kukiendesha.
Je, STT-CLI inafanya kazi kwenye ARM (Windows on Arm)?
Hakuna toleo la ARM64; Windows 11 on Arm inaweza kuendesha toleo la 64-bit kupitia uigaji (emulation).
Wapi pa kupakua toleo la zamani la STT-CLI?
Ukurasa wa matoleo unaorodhesha matoleo 3 yote pamoja na viungo vya faili rasmi za kisakinishi, kuanzia 7 Novemba 2025.
Je, STT-CLI inaweza kutumika bila haki za msimamizi?
Ndiyo, ni portable: fungua kumbukumbu (archive) na uiendeshe.
Ni programu gani mbadala wa STT-CLI?
