I think that a recent Windows 10 Update de-installed my Spell Checker.

In Mozilla Firefox, I tried: MENU/OPTIONS/GENERAL/LANGUAGE and checked "Check your spelling as you type".

I re-started Firefox and still no Spell Checker.

I downloaded a Firefox "Add-On" - a highly recommended Grammar & Spelling tool. It works OK, but not as good as the Spell Checker that HAD been installed & used on Outlook email.

If someone out there is confident they know the steps to re-install the original Spell Checker.....let's give it a try.

Thanks, Gary
