Why, why was OneNote released without an option to turn autocorrect off?! This problem is now old enough, how was this not fixed? You essentially made OneNote completely useless, since it auto-"corrects" everything you want to type into something wrong. Why was this option removed from the new Versions of OneNote? How does it come that its not fixed by now?

    Hi toph95,

    Have you tried disabling it manually in the OneNote app options? If not, click on File > Options > Proofing > under When Correcting Spelling in OneNote > unchecked the box for Check spelling as you type and Check grammar with spelling options. We suggest that you also check these links for more suggestions to disable other AutoCorrect options:

    Add, edit, or turn off automatic corrections

    Choose AutoCorrect options for capitalization, spelling, and symbols

    If you would like me to provide additional advice, simply respond to this thread. I will get notified and I’ll reply to you as soon as I can.
