    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    Please note that you will need to turn on proofing for OneNote. Kindly check if proofing is turned on. Here are steps to confirm that:


    1. Open OneNote.
    2. Click on located towards top right hand side.
    3. Then click on Settings and then on
      Options.
    4. Now, you will be able to see
      Proofing
      .
    5. Please turn it on and it should work fine.


    If proofing is turn on, then you can follow the following troubleshooting steps:

    Method 1: Remove the language pack and re-install it.

    1. Open Windows Settings
    2. Then click on Time & Language.
    3. Then click on Region & language.
    4. Click on the language you want to remove and then click on
      Remove.
    5. Now re-install the language pack.

    Method 2: If you are still not able to install basic typing feature for desired language, then try creating a new user account and install the language pack.

    If you need further assistance, please write back with the following information:

    1. Could you please confirm OneNote application you are using is downloaded from Microsoft Store or was installed it from Office package?
    2. Are you connected to a domain network?
    3. What is the version of Windows 10 that is installed on your computer?

  3. Error: 0x800f0954 "Sorry, download failed try again later" when installing basic typing feature for Japanese language

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you are unable to install the basic typing feature of Japanese language pack.

    I suggest you to try uninstalling and re-installing the language pack and check if that helps. You can follow the steps mentioned below to uninstall the language pack.



    1. Go Settings >
      Time & Language > Language.
    2. Now click on the Japanese language and click on
      Remove.


    Once the language pack is removed, refer the article to

    Add and switch input and display language preferences in Windows 10
    .



    However, as the issue is happening on Windows 10 Education environment, I suggest you to post your query on

    TechNet forums
    , as they have dedicated support for issues happening on Windows 10 Education environment.



    Hope it helps.



    Regards,

    How to add a display language without installing basic typing?

    I can not change display language

    Hi,



    Thank you for your reply.



    I suggest you to Change settings that may block installation

    There are advanced language settings that may block the download of language packs. To revert these settings to their defaults values so that you can download language packs, follow these steps:


    • Open Control Panel. To do this, type Control Panel in the
      Search box, and then tap or click Control Panel in the search results list.

    • Tap or click Clock, Language and Region. (If you are viewing Control Panel in icon display, select
      Language, and then go to step 4.)

    • Tap or click Language.

    • Tap or click Advanced settings.

    • Examine the Override for Windows display language and
      Override for default input method lists. Make sure that the
      Use language list (recommended)
      option is selected for both lists


    Keep us posted on this issue so that we can assist you better.
