RE: English dictionary (Re: 2015 -- Our 30th Anniversary) - OOPS

I am even more confusing than usual.  Alphonso thinks that the English dictionary is broken, but it does not appear to be and the breakage may be related to some problem in the user profile, as Andrea reported.  I confused this simple case with others where the remedy is also to delete the user profile.

There's still no wrong answer here, but my response is not relevant to the situation being complained about.

There is no wrong answer here.

The question is, do you want to fix your immediate problem, or are you willing to wait until there is something in the installer to destroy your profile every time you install an update, or something else?

Andrea described the state of affairs and the options for working around it that are available now.

Wrong answer.The end user should not have to fix anything it should work when the product is downloaded or the application should not be included in the download. 

It worked without difficulty prior to the latest version being released. I sent true end users to download the software , they downloaded the software and the spell check dictionary did not work. This damages our credibility as an alternative solution to pay for products that are available. 

What is the timeline for the download to be corrected?

The English dictionary is not supposed to be fixed since it already 
works. If it doesn't work for you, try resettin your user profile. There 
are plenty of explanations around, see for example
