Start by renaming your OpenOffice user profile.
As 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.
Okay I have it. It says "Default - English USA next to "Western"...what now?

Then make your settings in the windows that open when you click on each of "Languages" and "Writing Aids".
