    If I set the time to manual it will gradually lose time. If I set the update to automatic it will constantly be two minutes ahead of any other time server that I connect to. I think I need to change the time server but do not know how to do that.

  2. Spelling auto-correct isn't working

    Hi Mark,

    To resolve your issue about Spelling auto-correct, we suggest that you follow the steps below:

    • Use the Windows + I keyboard shortcut to open the
      Settings app.
    • Navigate to Devices and go to Typing.
    • Under Spelling, switch the Auto-correct misspelled words and Highlight misspelled words to the Off position.
    • Restart the computer.
    • After restarting the computer, go to the same settings page and turn back
      On the Auto-correct misspelled words and Highlight misspelled words
      feature.
    Let us know how it goes.

  3. Is there a way to selectively ignore spelling auto-correct in one-off instances?

    Another way: allow the auto-correct to take place, then tap on "Fast". The first suggestion should be the word that you originally wrote.

    Also, if you always want "Tast" instead of "Fast", you can add "Tast" to the phone's dictionary. Once you have "Tast" somewhere, tap on it, then in the suggestions list, tap on "+ Tast" (it should be at the start of the suggestions list).

    If you want to avoid the auto-correct in the first place, make the keyboard disappear (tap somewhere else on the screen, press the back button, etc.), then tap back to where you're composing text and continue.
