  5. After de-installation, run MS Word. Write Greek words with spelling errors and press F7 to call the Speller. Word will show a message saying that spelling check is complete, without flagging the spelling errors, which means that no speller is available for Greek. You can now proceed with the installation of Neurolingo's Proofing Tools for MS Office.
