As I run Windows 7 I have my Proof folder in the following directory: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft shared
I has a MSLID.DLL file and 3 dictionary files.
Checked the registry and the entry there is the same as on a working PC (what you mentioned) so the news in…. no, still not working.

Deleted the registry key and also run a repair of Office but this doesn't seem to make any difference.
what version of outlook do you have.
ASKER
2010
Cjheck for this and delete it.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software \Microsoft \Shared Tools\Proofing Tools\1.0\Override
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software
Dwm, have you checked to make sure all the settings I highlighted are definately ticked?

Override is not on the PC. But I checked a working one and it's not there either.
Is it working for Word???
Are you using word 2007 with outlook 2010 by chance? if you are, winword.exe needs to be presend in the office 14 folder.

We're using Office 2010 for all. And yes Boquez, the spellchecker works in Word.
I'm stumped, if someone does not have the answer for you look into a free third-party spell checker
Also. go into the Autocorrect button from there and make sure "Check spelling as you type" is ticked.
