When opening a Word document from an attachment, the 'do not check spelling or grammar' option is automatically enabled, and keeps re-enabling itself after being unchecked. This is not the case if opening a Word document locally on the machine. Is there a way to permanently disable the 'do not check...' option across the board? I have tried editing the registry, running quick and full repair on Office, verifying correct proofing tools are selected, highlighting all text in the document and unchecking the option

Hi @MVPromise
There's no way to permenantly disable this feature in Word.
You could go into File > Options > Proofing > Exceptions for and configure it for yourself for either the current doc or all new docs, but not an automatic blanket rule for docs sent by others.
Cheers & best wishes
