So do the same for Normal and then try again. If that does not work, the Comment Text style may be inheriting Do not check from its parent style - usually Normal (you can see in the image above that Normal is in the ‘Style based on:’ field - that’s the parent style that Comment Text is inheriting many properties from). In my experience, this sometimes happens when a document created/modified in Word 2010 is then edited in a later version of Word, though I really don’t know exactly how it happens. Now the style should not be telling the spell checker to skip over it.

Uncheck the box! It is already unchecked in this image. Then select Format (arrow 1) and Language (not shown) and then uncheck Do not check spelling or grammar (arrow 2). Right click on Comment Text (or click the little down arrow beside it) and select Modify… Modify the style This should cause the Comment Text style in the Styles pane to be highlighted. Or a setting in File → Options → Proofing could be turned off. If it is not underlining the misspelt words in the main text, your body style (probably Normal but it could be Body Text or something) probably has that box checked. Key path: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.If Word is not checking the comments, it is probably because the Comment Text style has got Do not check spelling or grammar selected.

Key path: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\word\options Key path: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\word\StatusBar Run in logged-on user's security context (user policy option) Yes Key path: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing Tools\1.0\Office We're running Office 2016 but were previously running 2010, which was completely locked down.Ģ016 has required a few extra registry keys and I'm sure these will apply to 2013 too so I thought I would share them here for anyone struggling. That way I can also prevent access to the students home folders, shared areas and the Internet etc. I don't go that far, instead I use separate exam accounts which the students have to use. The office apps still work fine, even if the students try to run spell checks, they just see the spell check complete message, but nothing is actually checked, or highlighted by the check as you type feature either.īecause the security permissions are set for a group, it only affects the members of that group so can easily be targeted at specific exam accounts, or named student accounts if you want to take the time to add/remove them before and after each exam. Can't remember the exact dll now (will post when back in work tomorrow) but the affect was to completely disable all the spell checking features for our exam user group accounts. Managed it using Gpo to set deny permissions on a dll file that contains the office spell checking functions. I had exactly the same requirement last year for students taking exams. This turns off Word's spell checking, but does it prevent students going into the options and turning it back on again?

To make things easier, I already included the key in the zip file attached. When an other user logs on, spell check is enable, the registry key only apply by user

The key was already present for some users so I also Update the key for some of them ! To get around this, like your probably see on my GPO I am creating the registry key when users logon. If dword=5 then spell check is still enable even if your GPO is disabling spell check ! There is a registry key that is being activated per user on the machine. I used IDs to disable user shortcuts and disable some buttons on the UI.ģ - After all this, my GPO was working but Word could still pick up any spelling mistake. adml files you will get an error once you open the group policy templates !Ģ - I want spell check to be disable only for a group of user so my policy is user based.Ĭreate a new GPO and follow and copy the settings from the attached files. adml files from the en-us to %systemroot%\PolicyDefinitions\en-us. admx files to %systemroot%\PolicyDefinitions and copy the.
