Fix: Grammarly Missing From Office Word

Grammarly is probably the best spelling and grammar checking software out there for computers. In addition to a dedicated program for Windows desktop, it also offers a plugin for the Microsoft Office Word and Outlook.

Once installed, a Grammarly tab is added to Office Word, which allows users to open Grammarly to begin checking for spelling and grammar mistakes. The same tab also offers various Grammarly options, including an option to Log out of Grammarly.

However, very rarely, the Grammarly tab might not show up in Word. This generally happens when the Grammarly add-in is not enabled or manually disabled.

If the Grammarly tab is missing from Office Word, you can follow the given below directions to enable the Grammarly tab again and make the Grammarly work again.
