Red squiggles reappear after using Ignore

Post by Webster1963 »

Hi, I've a Windows 11 Home. 4.1.13 version.
When I deal with a red squiggle under a word by clicking on 'ignore' or 'ignore all', the suiggle's back next time I open up to work on the document. Any ideas out there?
Here's hoping.

The 'ignore' and 'ignore all' options are only for the current editing session. If the word is correct but not usual, such as a personal or place name or technical term, add it to a custom dictionary, which you use with that or similar files.
