Hi, I have upgraded to "New Teams". I'm writing in multiple languages in different chats. The "old" Version was automatically identifying the language and then do spelling check for this language as described in following article:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/office/check-your-spelling-in-multiple-languages-in-microsoft-teams-0e269374-0cac-4a22-a377-53f01e05a6d4

Unfortunately this feature does not work on the "new" teams. How can I get back this feature?

Thanks for the help. VersionYou have Microsoft Teams version 23306.3315.2560.6525.You've got the latest version. It was last updated on 12/7/2023. The client version is 49/23110231810.

    Well, resetting Teams actually showed some changes. English spell checking is working now, but German isn't anymore. Now my German texts are completely underlined in red. Also, Teams is the only App that displays English date and time format instead of German, although "Country and region" and "Regional format" is set to German in the Windows settings.

    My conclusion is, that multiple languages are simply not supported in the "New" Teams. For the old version, everything worked fine.

    Could someone please remove the "Answer" label from EngineTyme's reply?

    The short and correct answer is that it's a known bug in the new version of Teams, so don't bother trying all the steps listed here.

    Do have any updated news on Language-aware spell checking in New Teams? Perhaps rolling out News Teams was premature. So many features that we rely on are not yet supported or ready.

    Since today I'm no longer allowed to switch back to the old Teams. This has been the only solution to solve the problem up to now. It is bad that I'm forced to use the new Teams although it has no advantage compared with the old teams. Why is it not possible to continue the old function in the new teams again?

    So typical of Microsoft: release a new version of a software that does less than the version it replaces and after a while prevent you from going back to something that worked.

    And we pay good $$$ for the privilege.

    I'm in the same boat, I type in Engligh, French and Dutch and previsously Teams was spellchecking in all those languaages, now everything I type in French is annoyingly underlined in those wavy red lines.

    I'd rather disable spell checking altogheter until that bug is fixed.
