title: pyttsx3 initialization error, can't use pyttsx3
body: <p>I was having some problems when using the .getproperty('voices') attribute in pyttsx3. So I decided to uninstall it and then re-install it using PIP to see if that may fix the problem.</p>
  
  <p>Previous link to when I had the .getproperty('voices') error: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60300515/why-do-i-get-an-error-with-pyttsx3-when-i-try-to-access-the-properties-of-the-vo">Why do I get an error with pyttsx3 when I try to access the properties of the voice?</a></p>
  
  <p>Now, when I installed it again using PIP, I can't even initialize it</p>
  
  <pre><code>import pyttsx3
  engine = pyttsx3.init()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It gives this error:</p>
