Can't install Language Accessory Pack

Anonymous

I have just bought a new PC and installed a new Office 2016 Prof. Now I am trying to install Language Accessory Pack to be able to see the typos and proofreading suggestions but no matter how many times I download the pack and install it, I do not see it as installed in Word-Options-Language-Office authoring languages and proofing. It still shows Proofing available. I used a correct version (2016, 64-bit)

Is there another way to do it?

    Do you still see the correct language versions for Office 2016 in the list of installed programs? In that case, no reinstallation should be required.

    Are you 100% certain that you do have 64 bit Office? If an older 32 bit version of Office was present on the computer at the time when you installed Office 2016, you usually get the 32 version (even on 64 bit Windows). Click File > Account > About Word to find out.
