          Issue ID: 128259
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: The Spell Checker no longer recognises any words in
                    Writer or Calc
           Product: General
           Version: 4.1.7

Created attachment 86807
  --> https://bz.apache.org/ooo/attachment.cgi?id=86807&action=edit
Document with a screen shot of the problem

Without warning Open Office stopped recognising any words.  I changed the spell
checker to a different language and back again but it still doesn't work.  I
checked and found that I was using version 4.1.6 so I installed 4.1.7 but it
still doesn't work.  Every word is underlined in red and if I go to the spell
checker in the menu it stops at every word.  I have attached a sample screen
print

Thank you.  I copied %AppData% to the Windows search bar.  In the list of
folders I renamed Open Office to Open Office.old.  Restarted Open Office and it
created a new folder with defaults and the problem has gone!
