Word 2016 not auto-formatting dashes, despite proper settings

Post Body
Two days ago, Microsoft Word stopped auto-correcting two hyphens into an em dash. I also can't add an en dash by leaving spaces between a hyphen anymore (i.e. "text - text").
The problem: I already made sure the corresponding box under "auto formatting options" was checked (it was, like always), but the program is completely ignoring this setting.
I'm using Office 2016 on Windows 10. This has never happened before; any ideas are appreciated.
