ISSUE

When you have set Microsoft Editor in new Outlook to use one or multiple languages for proofing or spellcheck feature, those settings may change unexpectedly later. You may notice that the default language has changed, for example, from English to Spanish, or another language that was added earlier in Editor's Settings, and they may suddenly disappear, or their order of preference may change.

STATUS: FIXED

This issue was resolved worldwide with a service-side fix in December 2024.
