  1. How can I get windows to stop suggesting words I have misspelled?


    I always leave on text suggestions and autocorrect because I'm a bad speller. Windows seems to have noticed some of the words I spell wrong and now suggest those incorrectly spelt words when I'm typing. For example, if I start to type "Avail..." Windows will auto-suggest 3 words "avail" "avalible" and "Avalieble" instead of "available" This is also the case for email addresses I often type. I once wrote "@gmail.xom" instead of "@gmail.com" for my email address and now that spelling is always suggested to me when filling in forms.

    Why does the "Text Suggestions" misspell the words?

    Why does the "Text Suggestions" misspell the word if I have already typed a letter? This is an eexample

    Autocorrect misspelled words not working / can I use SwiftKey?

    I would like to have misspelled words in Dutch autocorrected while typing in the webbrowser chrome on windows. On my android phone, my keyboard (GBoard) does this fantastically. SwiftKey by Microsoft seems to do the same on android.

    In windows 10 PC Settings - Devices - Typing, I have 'autocorrect misspelled words' activated. For hardware keyboard, I have 'autocorrect misspelled words as I type' activated.

    Autocorrection does not work. I see suggested words (see attachment), and when I misspell a word, the correct suggestion usually comes up first. But I have to click the word to have it corrected.

    My questions: Am I doing something wrong and does this work for others? If it does not work for others, is there something I can do to get the android kind of typing on windows 10?

    My windows version number is 19041.685

    Win 10 onscreen Keyboard auto-suggest memory - Delete misspelled words

    Have a Dell touchscreen laptop running Win 10 Version 21H1 - OS Build 19043.1237. The Win 10 Onscreen Keyboard has a predictive text pane across the top that suggests words as I type. It has somehow accumulated/saved a bunch of misspelled words in its memory and I cannot figure out how to purge the misspellings. Is there a way to do so sans a complete wipe and reload of Win 10?
