    I can't reinstall a game. A prompt "Check the spelling of the name", keeps appearing


    I tried reinstalling another game to see if this issue was only with this specific game. However, the same issue occurred, with the prompt appearing as above. The files for either game aren't even on my pc anymore. I've tried restarting, but the prompt still remains.

    :)

    Dictionary file corruption is one of the possible reasons you're having challenges with spell checker. To further troubleshoot the issue, we suggest that you clear Spell Checking Dictionary on your computer. Follow the steps below:

    • Open File Explorer, type %AppData%\Microsoft\Spelling into the address bar, and press
      Enter.
    • Open the folder for a language you want to customize (ex: en-US).
    • You can now clear the dic file.
    • When done, hit File in Notepad, click Save.
    After performing the steps above, let us know the results.
