Could you give me the steps to reinstall 2016 Word. We cannot do anything until 2016 Word is installed. Hopefully that will resolve my issue.

I tried to find the steps on the internet but nothing made any since including Microsoft downloads.
Reinstalling will do nothing for this AFAIK.

Did you follow the steps I gave?
  1. Select a word that is obviously misspelled but not flagged as an error.
  2. Check the language setting under the Review tab.
  3. Does it have "Do not check..." checked?
  4. If so, in the document use Ctrl+A to select all text.
  5. Check the language setting under the Review tab again.
  6. Make sure that checkbox is clear.

If you really want to reinstall (which will not help):
