Windows 10: Word ribbon flashing

And the normal.dotm file icon has an exclamation mark, if that means anything. Does not flash when safestarted.

:)

 

How do I add a custom word to the auto correct function when typing?

When you type the word you wish to add, tap the word to highlight it, then in the suggestion ribbon you'll see the word at the left with a "+" in front of it. Tap the word and it'll be added.





I have done that many times and the only effect I've seen is that the word doesn't show underlined anymore. I never see the word added to the list of suggestions or correcting what I write. Is there anything in particular that needs to be done?

 

Remove Mode Ribbon


Hi Rudypoop. Welcome to the TenForums @RudyPoop

That doesn't look like a Microsoft Ribbon. If you right click on it, just left of the word Auto but not on arrow does it give you a name? Does it give you options or settings?

If you click on Ribbon arrow are any of the options settings.

It is likely being started in your Startup tab within task manager. Look for a name like Toolbar, System Status. If you post a screen shot of the names in startup tab members could help suggest root program.
