  1. Disabled Auto-correct, but windows keep auto-correcting me


    Hi all,


    I have turned off the autocorrect misspelled words in Settings.


    However, when I type (in Vietnamese) it still autocorrect my typing.


    Any idea how I should avoid this?


    Further information:

    1. I'm using 'Unikey' program, which 99% of Vietnamese people are using for typing.

    2. I have never have this issue, since XP, 7, and 10 on Laptop. But I am having this one Windows 10 Surface.


    Thanks all.

    :)

    Auto Correct

    Hi,

    I'm using Windows Phone 8.1 Update on a Lumia 1520 and when I write, either Messaging or email, it auto corrects but makes a lot of mistakes so I would like to disable this. Where on the settings do I go to disable this auto correction ?

    Thank you
