Language and other codes missing on Windows 10

[soleyhyman]

I'm running on Windows 10 and have noticed that when I look at my voice options by running

engine = pyttsx3.init()
    voices = engine.getProperty('voices')

I get a list of available languages, but many of the other fields are left blank, e.g.,

Voice index: 0
id: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech\Voices\Tokens\TTS_MS_EN-US_DAVID_11.0
name: Microsoft David Desktop - English (United States)
languages: []
gender: None
age: None

Voice index: 1
id: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech\Voices\Tokens\MSTTS_V110_deDE_KatjaM
name: Microsoft Katja - German (Germany)
languages: []
gender: None
age: None

Have you heard of or encountered this before? Thanks!

yeah - ive always found the age field thats in this library code.. wierd. languages is the biggest concern being empty in my opinion.. that needs investigating

Hi! I was wondering if there were any updates to this issue or #361 RE a new PyPI release? We were keen to package pyttsx3 as a dependency for our code before the end of the year, but would need a working PyPI version.

Was able to get this working for Windows 10 using pyttsx3 version 2.99 https://test.pypi.org/project/pyttsx3/2.99/ (using pip install -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/ pyttsx3==2.99 see #361 (comment))
