Windows 10: Windows 10 system-wide spell check for non-English languages is absent and cannot be installed

Previously before the next cumulative update, I suspect, Windows 10 system-wide spell check was available for other than English languages. But now, if you go to settings, you will see that the ABC icon is only available for English language.I use WhatsApp extensively for my work, and system-wide spell check work for the English language works fine but is completely absent for other languages.

English English Spell Check

I've checked and I must have a different version, because I don't get that menu pop up when I click on Settings. All I get is a basic profile menu with "Manage account", "Sync", "Passwords", "Payment info", "Addresses and more", and "Import browser data". Do you know by that what version I have?

I've managed to get the Spell Check working though by doing a search through the Settings page. Now it's accepting both English English and American English, but hey-ho! *shrugs"

 

Spell check in multiple languages

Hi all,

I regularly write emails in both Dutch and English. Whenever I do, I have to select the language I am writing in or it will mark my spelling as wrong. This gets quite annoying after a while. How can I make it accept bot Dutch and English spelling without
having to switch back and forth? Preferably system wide.
