problem with spell checker even after I installed version 4.1.10
Hello. My name is Daniel Caputa and I’m having trouble with the spell checker and the language. I’m using windows 10. When I go to “auto spell check”, it shows everything I type with red squiggle lines under the words. I checked everything for the language and every other thing it told me to check but it still doesn’t work properly. One example is when I type the word “is” it comes up E1. If I try to use “auto spell check” a little red line comes up under each word. If I go to “spelling and grammar”, it highlights each word as the wrong spelling, even if they’re spelled correctly. I even went to “repair problems” which didn’t work. I know my spell checker is working good on my other programs because as I have been typing this letter, it’s been correcting my spelling. Could you please instruct me as to what I could do to correct my problem??? I’ll be looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks Dan!!

Start by renaming your OpenOffice user profile.
If you are using Windows close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter. Open File
Explorer. Copy and paste %appdata%\OpenOffice\4 in the File Explorer (sometimes called Windows Explorer)
Address Bar and press Enter. Rename the "user" folder - "user.old" is a
good choice. Start OpenOffice.
This cures most spellcheck problems.
