Whether drafting emails, writing reports, or creating presentations, spelling mistakes and typos can easily be missed. This means you risk looking unprofessional, especially when communicating with clients or business partners.
Here’s the good news: Windows 11 has built-in spell check and autocorrect tools to stop embarrassing spelling mistakes.
The tools are easy to set up, and once you’ve done it, you won’t need any extra software to ensure your text always looks clear and professional.
Want to know how to use them?
First, open Windows Settings, select Time & Language and click the Typing page. You can turn on several options in that window, including Autocorrect misspelled words and Highlight misspelled words.
These features will work with most software applications by fixing errors and flagging possible spelling mistakes. You can even get word predictions as you type by enabling text suggestions.
Does your business operate in multiple languages? If so, turn on the Multilingual text suggestions feature to display word suggestions in your language.
While the spelling tools built into Windows 11 will work with most software applications, some, like Notepad and Outlook, will require extra setup.
In Notepad, click the gear icon for settings to turn on the spell-check feature.
Your employees probably spend significant time in Microsoft Outlook sending emails, so it’s worth turning on grammar tools here, too. Go to Editor Settings under the Options tab. You can turn on features like autocorrect, text predictions, and even tone adjustment in that window.
If your team uses Microsoft Edge for browsing, you can also set up spell check and grammar tools there. Open Settings, click Languages and turn on the grammar and spell check options.
By setting up spell check and autocorrect in Windows 11, you can avoid small mistakes and help your business run more smoothly.
