Outlook 365 spell check prevents manual editing of errors
When creating a new email in the online version of outlook, spellcheck recently started blocking manual editing of misspelled words. For example, when typing "on", I accidentally pressed the "p" key...
gerardricardo01I actually had the same problem for a while here (hadn't connected the issue to spellcheck, but it fits) but you can solve that by disabling keyboard shortcuts. With these on, pressing the "backspace" key archives the selected email. Like you would if you were, say, fixing a typo... Turning it off fixed that for me at least. Haven't experimented with the other shortcut options, but if you are OK with not having that functionality the option is available.
Thank you Jordan, that seems to have made big difference for me being able to edit 1 misspelled letter in technical words that don't typically occur in the drop down box, without it playing havoc with the rest of my inbox. Huge help [for a problem that surely didn't need to have happened...]. Time will tell if i miss any of the other turned off shortcuts 🙂
