windows 10 spell checker not working

I can't remember the details, but a couple of months ago the default dictionary I've used automatically for ever and without thinking, suddenly stopped working. Apparently it was no longer compatible with a recent TB upgrade. I switched to the British English Dictionary by Marco Pinto

I think much in the same way as Firefox lost access to a lot of Add Ons when they started to use the Quantum engine, when Third did the same the same problem happened there as well. If you look at add ons you see that some are disabled due to incompatibility. I myself question the effort put into the new engines in these bits of software. they are supposed to make the code more secure as add ons can no longer be used as vectors to hack into them, but sadly the performance has suffered as a result and how many people do you know ho have been hacked through a browser or email program? Normally its a bad choice made by a user or lack of care of what emails are opened and acted upon. People expect their anti virus to catch everything, but if that was the case, then there would be no need for virus definition updates. Most of the folk who have been hacked seem to have downloaded malware directly or been duped by phishing emails and other stuff. Brian
