Reinstalling Bt Internet

[Coppit]

This was reasonably easy and works quite well but the spell checker which used to underline words in red no longer works and I can't find how to wake it up.

Look through your internet browser options and put a tick in the box for 'check my spelling as I type' Also, set your preferred Language as well.

If you let us know what browser your using spmeone might be able to give more accurate directions

spmeone = someone
Duh!

You've not told us which program you're referring to.

If it's Firefox (which you've mentioned in another post), go to Tools (or the hamburger), click on Add-ons and then on Dictionaries. You should have a British English dictionary shown there. [Mine is shown as 'British English Dictionary (Marco Pinto)]. Ensure that it's enabled or, if it's not there, use the search box to locate and install it.

Also go to Tools (or the hamburger) > Options.
If 'General' isn't already selected, click on it.
Scroll down to 'Language' and check that there's a tick next to 'Check your spelling as you type'.

If you're referring to something other than Firefox, please let us know which program it is,.

Not having much luck here. I have Firefox but after going to Options - Addons, Dictionaries isn't appearing. I've tried Grammarly and although it checks the spelling in this msg, it doesn't do so in BT internet messages.
Under Options, English/UK [en-gb] is enabled

When I go to Hamburger > Add-ons, I see this (after clicking on 'Dictionaries' down the left-hand side):

If you're not seeing 'Dictionaries' it suggests that you're using an old version of Firefox, as dictionaries used to be listed under 'Extensions'. (Look there to see if you've got a British English dictionary listed).

To check which version of Firefox you're using, go to Hamburger > Help > About Firefox. (You should have version 57.0.4)

To install a British English dictionary, go to Hamburger > Add-ons and type 'British English' in the search box. From the results which appear install 'British English Dictionary (Marco Pinto)'.

When I go to Hamburger > Options I see this (after checking that 'General' is selected and then scrolling down):

It's the box at the bottom of my illustration which needs to be ticked.
