I mostly use only my keyboard to type, the dropdown option on the keyboard makes it extremely convenient to access the spell check options. This is a right click function, since changing it to left click this functionality has been lost.
Having to stop typing and using the mouse to left click every time is iritating and frankly a waste of time / disruptive. It makes no sense to change a function that has been a staple since the start of spellchecking without providing an option to change it back!!

Spellcheck is essential!!! Here it is Jan 2024 and still doesn't work. The best Outlook can do is tell me I spelled the word wrong but no suggestions on how to correct it? It works in the new Teams, one would think it's simiar coding....
You should be able to. New Outlook (at least for me) installed a new version of it but retained the "Old" version to. You can open the old version and get back to right click spell checking.
The new outlook version is terrible, this is an important feature. Worse, I cannot change back to the old outlook. Very frustrated.
Is there an update on this, when will the spell check be available in the new Outlook version?
This complaint was in May, its now Nov and its still not fixed? what a joke
