    Hello, to turn off speech recognition, go to the Windows search bar, then type in "speech", then choose Speech Recognition. Click on Advanced Options, then uncheck the "run speech recognition at startup" option. Restart the computer, and the speech recognition should no longer be there.

    Hope this helps and let me know if you still have problems!
