o Launch the control panel and navigate to Programs/Programs and Features
o Click on Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016
o Click Change
o Select the Add or Remove Features radio button
o Click Continue
o Under “Office Shared Features”, click on Proofing Tools and select “Run from My Computer”
o Click Continue
o You will now see a Configuration Progress bar
o Once the installation has completed, open the Office applications to confirm spellcheck is working correctly.
