Windows 10 - Problem with Spell Check on Firefox

Post by dewaltdisney »

Can anyone help me get my online spell check to work I just cannot solve it. It might be that there is not a correct add on for Windows 10 yet as I have loaded one add on that did not work so I deleted it and I have played around with all the settings in both the Windows and Firefox options.

Any advice greatfully received.

Thanks

Its working o.k. for me.

I have the English language pack installed (Not the American one) and the English dictionary.
Above are my opinions Below is my signature.

Would you hit a nail with a shoe because you don't have a hammer? of course not, then why work on anything electrical without a means of testing Click Here to buy a "tester" just because it works, does NOT mean it is safe.

Sorted now, I had to download the GB English Dictionary Add On that works. The other dictionary I downloaded did not work?

I don't know 100% but I think it has something to do with the dictionary. I had a similar problem before, and I downloaded the dictionary and hey presto.
