3/25 It's back!
I'm not sure if it works on every document, but it worked on one of mine!
(Edit on 4/26) It works on some documents but not on others... Does anyone else have the same problem?

Someone in the comment section said "The latest word, as of today, is "The latest update in the bug is that there are still some approvals that the team is waiting on. The Word team is treating this as a high-priority incident and is working to have this restored as soon as possible.". So anyone wondering for any updates, there it is...
Thank you!
(I will try my best to look for any updates given in this comment section)

I'm surprised Microsoft isn't giving this the highest priority - similarity checker is an important part of its Office product and it clearly isn't working. We all pay a subscription, so should be getting a product in full working order.
NOT FIXED
Not fixed and I've been trying all day.
The OP has reported it fixed, but many users disagree, and I haven't heard anything from Microsoft.
Suzanne, I assume you have not heard any updates on this issue, but can you confirm?
Similarity checker is still not working for me.
