How do I turn ON spell check?

[TomCougar]

I hate having to manually correct misspelled words or use Microsoft Word to draft my posts here.

Same. Fixed it doing this.
Just use Norepad to edit the prefs

or this one.

But close Steam fully off before modifying prefs file

Those are threads on how to turn the darn thing off. Mine is not on by default for some reason. If I have to open a separate program to compose posts, I would rather use Word than Notepad anyway. Word has a Review tab and spell/grammar checks.

Thank god for copy/paste on Steam anyway.
modifying prefs file...no thanks, I don't want a Doctorate in Geekology to post stuff on Steam.

If you dont see the spell then maybe they finally fixed it.
Steam doesn't help with spell check it just showed miss spelt words with a red wavy line underneath even when the words are spelt correctly and noway to correct it.

Here you go
Enable spell check Chat Steam , scroll down to the last image see what's written there below.

If you write in your own language + the one of os, you dont see red lines if words are right.

If steam enabled an auto correction, it would be broken because what would it do with this post? Nearly all words are red underlined.

Legit the post I am quoting is only 2 years old. How did I miss this?!
