Has anyone created a profile that will uncheck the autocorrect option in the keyboard system preferences? Now that students need to log in with credentials every time they launch an Adobe application, the auto correct is making it worse.

I would like to push something out that would make that change to all my users.

Thanks!

The command needed is likely this one:

defaults write NSGlobalDomain NSAutomaticSpellingCorrectionEnabled -bool false

I'm not sure about pushing it out via policy, though, perhaps someone else can chime in here.

I found the setting at `Devices` > `Configuration Profiles` > `Restrictions` > `Functionality` > `Auto-correction`. There it might also make sense to disable `Predictive Keyboard` and `Spell-check`.
