The speech privacy policy was not accepted prior to attempting a speech recognition

If you are trying to use SpeechRecognition and you see this general Exception - "The speech privacy policy was not accepted prior to attempting a speech recognition" - or possibly you see the "The text associated with this error code could not be found."...

Then the answer is http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/jj662934%28v=vs.105%29.aspx#BKMK_Handlingthespeechprivacypolicyerror

Basically - try pressing and holding the start key - then getting the user to accept the terms and conditions...

Also, in your own app... it seems like maybe you need to be sure you are requsting the speech recognition in an async call on the UI thread?

  1. If you are not using the RecognitionUI then you must ask the user to visit System->Speech->Enable Speech Recognition Service
