How do you disable spelling and Grammar checking despite it being disabled in Operating System?

Hi Emm Ess,

Thanks for reaching out. I understand you’d like to disable spelling and grammar checking in Zoom Workplace Chat.

Here’s how this currently works:

1. On macOS:
   Zoom includes its own Spelling and Grammar setting that controls spell check and auto‑correction within chat.

   • Go to Zoom Workplace → Settings → Team Chat (or the relevant tab).
   • Look for the Spelling and Grammar option and uncheck it to disable spell and grammar checking 1.

2. On Windows or Linux:
   At this time, Zoom does not provide an in‑app option to disable spelling or grammar checking 1.

   • OS‑level, browser, or Group Policy settings do not affect Zoom’s internal text input system, so disabling them externally will not stop spell checking in Zoom 1.
   • There is no available toggle in the Zoom Workplace app for these platforms.

3. Workarounds:

   • If the spell check is distracting, you can compose messages in an external editor (like Notepad or TextEdit) and paste them into Zoom Chat.
   • Alternatively, you can submit feedback to Zoom requesting a Windows/Linux toggle for this feature.
