The introduction ofspellcheck in Notepadis one of the most significant changes to the basic text editor in a long time. It has been introduced inNotepad 11.2402.18.0for users in the Windows 11 insiders in theCanaryandDev Channels.
Microsoft also brought dedicatedSpellcheckandAutocorrectsettings to help users configure things. As per reports, a few users have already got spellcheck on Notepad in Windows 11.
As it turns out, most still don’t have the new Notepad and, subsequently, no spellcheck.
This isn’t a major problem. Much like any other major update, spellcheck in Notepad is also a phased rollout.
Microsoft, in itsofficial blog, said,
Even if you are a Windows Insider in the Dev and Canary channels, wait for a few days. The feature should make it to your device soon. And if you are not,sign up for the Windows Insider Program.
To anyone who received it, send your feedback. Microsoft will monitor it in the initial days before a mass deployment of the feature.
As for users on the stable Windows 11 builds, reports suggest spellcheck should be released alongsideWindows 11 24H2in a few months.
