  1. How to delete a language and disable proof checking


    When I installed US keyboard QWERTY, the keyboard Afrikaans - US are also installed, but I cannot delete it, since it's only seen in the languagebar, not in the Language settings. How can I delete this language in this situation?Also, when I used Vietnamese - Telex keyboard, it always shows proof - checking when I search by MS Edge. The proofing didn't show up in other apps, such as Word, since I have turn off the proofing in word setting. How can I turn this off in MS Edge?

    :)

  2. Proofing of a new language

    Hi ClothingChip950,

    Got it, thanks. Now, in the Mail app, just ignore the language drop-down & close your Mail app.

    Go to Start > Settings > Time & Language > Language > under Preferred languages, select the English language > click on its' up arrow button to make sure it's at the top of the lists. Then open your Mail app, create a new message & your language proofing should
    no default to English.

    If you encounter errors, kindly send me the screenshot of the error for further checking.

    I hope this helps. Let me know how you go. Thank you!

    Sincerely,

    Paul A.

  3. Proofing of a new language

    Hi!

    I recently installed another language on my PC (en-US) but the options for proofing and the rest didn't appear when installing it. When I've tried using it, the message "You can add proofing by installing a new language, booting your pc and restart all apps"
    appear but even doing that, the language is only shown as installed and active yet not the proofing check. Any idea of why it can't be installed or how it could be done?

    [SOLVED] Default proofing language setting isn't working in Office 365 (US installed, German Proofing)

    Hi Chrisvan,

    Thank you for reporting this concern to us.

    We got your concern about your Office 365, where the default proofing language that you set up in your Windows and Office apps isn’t working in any of your Office applications. This issue depends on how the language is set up in the Office program.
    Let us work together on having this addressed as soon as possible.

    Could you please verify if the steps provided in this article are
    the ones that you used in configuring the default proofing language to German?

    Aside from installing the US version of Windows and Office 365, where you also be able to install the language pack for the German language that you are trying to use as a default for proofing? If so and it still does not work, we advise reinstalling
    the language pack for the said language on your computer. The language where you can download it can be found in this article.

    Once you have downloaded it, you may use the first article above on how properly change the language for proofing in the Office application. Then, check if you will be able to use the German language as proofing in your Office application. Following
    these steps is proven to resolve the issue.
