Default No dictionary installed

I went to use the thesaurus in Word 2013 and it told me there was no dictionary installed. HUH? When I clicked on "Get a Dictionary," it told me "Sorry, there are no dictionaries available for English (United States).



Can someone explain why this is happening? When you buy a full version of something, you want to be able to use ALL of its features. So annoying.

Thanks very much.

Todd

Your description suggests a faulty or incomplete installation.

Have you tried repairing or modifying the Office installation (via Programs & Features > Microsoft Office > Change in the Windows Control Panel)?
