My typing is really bad so I have been trying to enable auto correct for windows 10 while using a web browser(mainly for facebook chat). I did a google search and all posts are on how to disable it. I used this method(windows 10 typing settings/hardware keyboard) but instead used it to enable it and it doesnt work in browsers(the new edge/chrome/firefox). Did they remove this feature because all the posts I saw where people wanted to disable it were from 2018 or older and I am having the opposite problem - I want it enabled. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Google chrome has a built in spell checker. Go to Settings > Advanced, go to Languages and click Spell Check to expand menu. Then turn on the language you want spell check for. Or you can use the Grammarly extension, which is very nice.

For Mozilla firefox go to about:preference > Advanced > General > Browsing and turn on "Check my spelling as I type".
