    It's 2025, almost a year later from the original post, and I found this thread. I had the same issues and nothing worked excepted opening up the email to it's own window, then the spelling and grammar check works when you right-click. Is there anyway to fix this so that I do not have to pop-out windows?

    This was driving me NUTS! After altering the ribbon and turning it back on, I found that if you single-click in the misspelled word instead of tight-clicking, it offers suggestions. Why change this?? Don't know, but hopefully it works for you too

    Same here. You get the red squiggly line under the word, when double click for corrections, there are none. Bring back the old classic outlook PLEASE!!!!!

    Hah! LOL Sally! Thanks for the laugh!!

    I know this thread is long but folks should read the entire thing before commenting. No view button that allows me to enable spell check in my new outlook. I am doing the work around of popping the email out. Sad that a company that pretends to be a leader in tech continues to disappoint their users with features no one wants or asked for while taking away things used by many. Any hoo up side is my typing accuracy and spelling have vastly improved! :)

    PS I mistyped spelling and guess what spell check in this forum actually works. Cant get any sillier than that!

    I hate that I have to pop out this reply window, to get the spell check to work. Can I keep my response in the main widow without doing that?
