FW: [Issue 127072] dictionary is installed but contains no words
Hi there,
I am contacting you as advised by Mr McKenna (see Below) during a discussion about an issue I’m having with Openoffice. I have followed Mr McKenna’s instructions regarding resetting the profile but I’m still having no luck – the pathway listed [under Paths Used by Openoffice] does not actually give the correct location for the program (see attached capture) – I have been unable to located the program data in order to reset the profile. It seems very strange to me that the program itself would identify a pathway that doesn’t exist...
[the original issue was that the English UK dictionary has been installed but appears to contain no words – when I run spellcheck it underlines every single word and has to suggestions)
I assume that this is something to do with Windows 10 as I have never had such an issue before and this is a relatively new laptop with Windows 10 installed.
If you can give any advice on how to reset the profile in windows 10 or on any other way to get the spellcheck working I would be extremely grateful! This request is urgent, I need to be able to spellcheck job applications to be submitted asap.
Many many thanks!

To find the path to your profile do the following
Start OpenOffice
click tools->option
In the left pane of window that opens be sure that the entry OpenOffice is
expanded. If it isn't click the plus sign next to it.
Once it is expanded click paths
The right pane will show a list with the headings type path
The first entry should be AutoCorrect followed by a string.
EXAMPLE
AutoCorrect C:\Users\Keith McKenna\AppData\Roaming\OpenOffice\4\user\autocorr
That string is the path into the OpenOffice profile.
Now open Windows Explorer and navigate through the path until you find the
OpenOffice folder.
From there follow the steps in the original link to reset the profile.
If you are stilling having difficulties resetting the profile. A better place
to get help would be posting your question either the user mailing list at
mailto:users@openoffice.apache.org or the User Forum at
http://forum.openoffice.org/

Kathrine;
The program itself and the profile are separate. The instructions I gave
you are to find the profile. If you follow the path given in in the
paths section of the preference window it should point you to the
profile folder. Can you type the full path for the Auto Correct entry
from your paths entry. Once we see that we should be able to help you
better with this issue.
You have been cc'd as you are not subscribed to the list. Please reply
only to the list and not to my e-mail address.

There's a patch that might fix this associated with issue 126762:
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126762
This has already been applied to trunk some time ago. Since the Win
nightly buildbot is now working-- https://ci.apache.org/builders/aoo-win7,
Maybe someone would like to test this?
Results can be found at:

This whole "spellchk" & "delete profile" is utter nonsense. Surely,
SURELY!, AOO is smart enough to handle this with a simple macro. Maybe
even with a "tab" pointing to the macro.
This "*spellchk is busted*" mess has gone on long enough. Garden variety
users shouldn't be burdened with this crap. I'm not bright enough to write
such a macro, but I'll bet 60 or 100 (10,000?) other users/developers are.

Kathrine;
The program itself and the profile are separate. The instructions I gave
you are to find the profile. If you follow the path given in in the
paths section of the preference window it should point you to the
profile folder. Can you type the full path for the Auto Correct entry
from your paths entry. Once we see that we should be able to help you
better with this issue.
