How to turn of autocorrect typing in Edge?

Hi everyone! Since I tried Edge, it just makes me really irritated that when I type, it automatically makes some words Capital letters. (this Capital here is also autocorrected by Edge, I'm not going to go back and delete the Capital letter each time). I hate this. It's annoying especially when I type in languages other than English. Even in English, we don't capitalize nouns, that's a German rule. How do I turn this feature off?? I searched the support pages, nothing, I googled it, nothing. Any ways to stop this program rewriting my stuff? Thanks in advance!

I think i got it, it's not about Edge but the whole win 10. Open Settings from the start menu, then go to devices. There you'll find a tab named Typing, fifth in the list for me, and the autocorrect feature is displayed there. If you switch the autocorrect off, edge will stop bugging your text (i actually wrote this in edge ;) ). Enjoy. :)

Hey,

See my original post: http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/How-do-I-disable-auto-correct-for-Skype-in-Windows-10/m-p/4079941#M361710

If for some reason the "Typing" tab in the settings is gone (It was for me) you can unhide it through regedit.

Use regedit and search for the following value: "ShowAutoCorrection". Change the value to '1' and you should be able to access "Settings -> Devices -> Typing" to change your autocorrection settings.

Restart your application, log in and out, or reboot your system to make the changes apparent. It worked for Skype at the very least for me.

Yeah, same problem with me as well. These autocorrects are getting out of control, capitalizing every I and correcting some words (from my native language) into correct English words, which is simply not fair and overwrites my initial intentions.
