    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!

    Hi there,

    From what I can see, in the new 365 Outlook, there is no spell checking button. I have admin access too and I cannot see an option that actually makes a spell check button appear for me, as a user.

    Yes, incorrectly spelt words might be red underlined (not always from what I have seen) and then you LEFT hand click to bring up spelling corrections (see attached image). That works OK but my main issue is:

    1. Why remove the spell check button in the first place? You would not do that in Word or Excel etc.

    To an MS devloper reading this, please just put the "ABC Spelling and Grammar" button back.

    Thanks.
