Dear Ramesh,

When I click Tools there is no 'Options' in the drop down menu?

Thank you,

Peter Onslow.

Hi Peter,

You're probably looking at the "New Message" window. Switch to Windows Mail main screen, and click the Tools menu.

[J.Papp]

I'd like to give a thanks as well. Worked perfectly.

I recall looking at this option a couple of times and, since it appeared to
have the proper language selected, it never occurred to me to simple choose
it again... LOL!

 

[Pieron]

This must be done on the E-Mail home screen, doing this on the compose
message screen will not display a drop down.

There is a problem in Explorer on Vista which causes a folder to become in
excessible, upon changing login and after I set the language to English and
added international as well Spelling began working for Spell Checking but
then I clicked on the folder that before if i clicked it would cause Explorer
to shutdown and all the desktop icons would re-read, I would have to re-open
explorer to where i was and try to avoid that folder. Yet in DOS I managed to
write a batch file and copied this to a HTM filespec content and then opened
it and that did not allow me to copy the files from that folder, but when I
used the DID "*.* >> text1.txt file it read all the files in that folder, I
then used copy *.* to another folder and got the files but I couldn't delete
them. Now I clicked the folder by mystake following setting English for the
language and explorer did not shutdown. I may can now delete the files in
that folder and remove that folder but why did this happen in the first place.

Thanks a bunch for the help!! Without this support group we would be dead in
the water.... I am just amazed that there are so many basic problems with
Vista (I have only been using it for 3 weeks). Maybe we should all go back to
XP!!! At least it worked (most of the time). Thanks again for your support.

The registry setting looks correct.

Alternately, you may use the following REG file to set the default spell check language:
http://www.winhelponline.com/fixes/spellchk_settings.reg

Download the file to Desktop. Right-click on the file and choose Merge. Click "Yes" to confirm. Note that this REG file does not bring back the language options in the "Spelling" tab dropdown box, but sets English as the default language. Let's know how this goes.

I tried Ramesh's suggestion below to no avail. In fact, no language drop down
appeared. Suggestions?

Can you list the relevant bug ID for this problem? I'm assuming it exists (or
I'm going to go create one). I'd like to track it. It's a very annoying bug
for a clean installation of your newest OS. I wish I'd seen and reported it
during beta.

There really aren't all that many problems with Vista.
The thing is, the overwhelming majority of users who are happy
won't be posting here, so you get a distorted picture.
I remember when XP first came out, there were user problems with it also.

the download works..but this is ridiculous that this has to be done in order
for the spell check to work..you guys@microsoft need to get all the bugs
ironed out in Vista and all the compatiblty issues with this OS..I have had
no end of them.

[Diana Mulligan]

This is the answer that works although I did what most people did initially
and click on the tools within an open e-mail message and the tools menu you
need to click on is from the main page of windows mail. It only there that
you get an Options choice. Follow the rest of the instructions although
English is the default and in there already. For some reason it works. This
service worked great although a little confusing, but it was my first time
using it and I found my answer. Nice job Ramesh.

 

[Guest]

Ditto. My pull down menu does not have an option for US english so
there is nothing to click on.

Which pulldown menu? In the main window for Windows Mail, click on
Tools then Options, then Spelling, then the triangle to the right of the
current language, then some language other than English, then Apply,
then the triangle again, then English, then Apply again, then OK.

This is needed since Windows Mail comes with the default language
partly set to English, but not enough to work.

 

[Ramesh, MS-MVP]

This should help.

Language drop-down box under the Spelling tab in Windows Mail is empty:
