The German male voice in my case is called MSTTS_V110_deDE_StefanM. There you will find each WinRT voice registered under its own key. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech_OneCore\Voices\Tokens But after studying the Windows registry and a couple of files referenced in there, I noticed that both APIs use the same data files so I copied the registry keys from the German male voice registered in WinRT API into the corresponding SAPI section. In Windows 8+ there are two speech synthesis programming interfaces (like explained by Eric Brown). Works for 32 and 64 bit programs (natively or WOW). So I did this "hack" and surprisingly worked right away (Windows 10 version 1803).
I needed to make a desktop (not universal app) program in C# that utilized the male voice but it was not available through SAPI. In my case, under Windows 10, I installed the German language with TTS package and it installed a female voice (WinRT and SAPI) plus a male voice (WinRT only). I managed to fix this issue by modifying the Windows registry.
