Windows 10: Spell check not working in reply.

Using Office 2010 and Windows 1903.

When replying to an email spelling errors comes up underlined. A right click instead of offering the correct work comes up with signatures.

Now the perceived wisdom seems to be that you edit signatures and put -- above the signature and when replying type above the --. I find this doesn't work.

If you use review then yes the spell checker works but I would quiet like the right click method to work.

Any ideas?

(Have had this problem for 10 years).

Spell check is not working on Twitter.

Hi Marie,

Windows should make necessary auto-correction if the Autocorrect misspelled words option in the Settings app is enabled. A built-in restriction on the website you are using could be a possible cause why the spell check is not working on it. For us to provide
an accurate resolution, we would need you to answer the following questions:

• Are you experiencing the same issue even when accessing the website using other web browsers, or is the issue isolated to a specific browser?
• Is the spell check working before on the website you are using? If yes, what changes have you made to your computer before this issue occurred?
• Are you experiencing the same issue on other websites?

To check if the issue is not with the built-in spell checker on your Windows 10, we suggest testing it on any Office application. Let us know if the spell check is also not working with the Office apps.

We are looking forward to your response.
