Word for Microsoft 365 Outlook for Microsoft 365

To see Editor's spelling and grammar corrections and writing suggestions, it's no longer necessary to right-click for a context menu. Instead, click directly on the error, and review the suggested correction. The keyboard shortcut for reviewing Editor's suggestions is Alt+Down.

Click directly on a flagged term to get Editor suggestions.

If you're in the habit of right-clicking, that still works, and the keyboard shortcut for right-clicking is still the same: Shift+F10.

This change is designed to:

  • Simplify the reviewing process.

  • Provide a focused reviewing experience that is free from distractions of non-Editor actions.

  • Increase efficiency for people who find right-clicking inconvenient.
