Microsoft Teams Spell Check

Hi, the Reset works for me now, let's wait for a while to see whether it will hold.

Thanks!

nah the spelling check immediately gone once I updated to the latest version today. lmao.

I've tried the reset a few times now, will work initially but then the next day I notice the distinct lack of red lines for the spell checker.

It appears that you're experiencing an issue with the spell checker functionality in Microsoft Teams after a recent update. This problem seems to manifest as the spell checker highlighting misspelled words but failing to provide suggested corrections when clicked. Additionally, you've mentioned that deleting the settings.json file temporarily resolves the issue, but it reoccurs shortly afterward.

It seems that this issue may be related to a software bug or compatibility issue within the latest update of Microsoft Teams. The fact that the spell checker works correctly when using the pop-out feature and chatting in a separate window suggests that the problem may be specific to the integrated interface of Teams rather than the spell checker itself.

Here are some steps you can take to address and troubleshoot this issue:

1. Check for Updates: Ensure that you are running the latest version of Microsoft Teams. Sometimes, software updates include bug fixes and improvements that can resolve issues like the one you're experiencing.
2. Submit Feedback: Use the built-in feedback mechanism in Microsoft Teams to report the issue directly to Microsoft. This helps Microsoft prioritize and address software bugs and usability issues.
3. Community Forums: Continue monitoring community forums and support channels, such as the Microsoft Teams community forum or Microsoft support pages, for updates, workarounds, or resolutions provided by other users or Microsoft support staff.
4. Temporary Workaround: While waiting for a permanent solution, you can continue using the pop-out feature or an alternative method for chatting in a separate window where the spell checker works correctly.
5. Reinstall or Repair: If the issue persists, consider reinstalling Microsoft Teams or performing a repair installation to ensure that the software is functioning correctly.
6. Contact Support: If the problem persists despite attempting the above steps, consider reaching out to Microsoft Support for further assistance. Provide them with detailed information about the issue, including any error messages, steps to reproduce, and relevant system information.

By following these steps and staying engaged with the Community of MicrosoftTeamscommunity and support channels, you can increase the likelihood of resolving the spell checker issue and improve your overall experience with the application.
Alternatively, You may try Repair option or Reset. It may surely helps you to fix the issue.

This is simply unacceptable. If I load up "Teams Classic" spell checking works no problem but it then FORCES ME to use the "new" teams which apparently cannot spell check? What year is it again??

I am now using this PowerShell code to fix my spell check. Rather than wiping out the entire directory which deletes custom backgrounds, I delete everything else in the folder.

To make it easier to run, I used the PS2EXE module to compile it to an EXE.
