Funny I'm getting about the same error message window popping up but it only happens when I have the self-voicing enabled and I usually use that feature to help me to read the game story dialogue for me. I'm having this issue with two Ren'Py games but the rest of them work fine with the self-voicing. I tried to search for a solution on Google but I couldn't find anything.

Loading script "lib\windows-x86_64\say.vbs" failed (The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. ).

I think I figured the issue out is and I don't know if you still have this issue but I hope this solution works for you. I just tried it and it fixed mine. Apparently when you have the directory name or filename that contains odd symbols or any characters even written in an unsupported language is when the error occurs. I simply removed it and renamed the directory (game folder) and finally the error went away.

If anyone got this issue, download this and add it to the game lib\windows-x86_64 worked for me.
