Nearly all of my text is red underlined with Auto Spell Check on. How do I fix it? Windows 10, OpenOffice 4.1.4
Thanks,
Howell

Rename your OO user profile.
As your Forum .sig says you are using Windows s 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 almost all spellcheck problems.

If the resetting of the User profile will not help (described above), then you need check,
- if the paragraphs (or the paragraph styles)
have a Language property,
- if the assigned specific language has language tool in your AOO.
