There is no spell check dictionary, it tries to correct every word.

Thank you for the clarification, @RadRick01.

We can run the repair tool for QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) to fix this app-related issue. This tool can help identify why the Spell Check feature tries to correct every word.

First off, back up your company file to save everything currently in your company file. Then, restart your computer to make sure no program may affect the repair.

Once done, follow the steps below to run the repair tool.

Open the Window Start menu.
Select Control Panel.
Select Programs and choose Programs and Features
Click Uninstall a Program.
Select QuickBooks from the list of Programs, then Uninstall/Change.
Select Continue, or Next.
Select Repair, then Next.
Once it's done, click Finish. Note: You may have to restart your computer to complete the repair.

Lastly, update your QuickBooks to the latest release to ensure you have the most recent features and fixes.

Also, in case you need tips and related articles in the future, visit our QuickBooks Community help website for reference: Self-help.

Please let me know if you need further assistance. I'm always here to help.

Hi there, @RadRick01.

Thanks for taking the time to reach out to us. Let me help walk you through on how to turn on spell checker in QuickBooks Desktop.

Click Edit menu, then choose Preferences.
Choose Spelling.
Under My Preferences, mark check Always check spelling before printing, saving, or sending supported forms box.
Press OK.

You can identify words to ignore as well as add custom spelling words on the same preference page.

It is ALREADY enabled, that is why I said "It tries to correct every word." The dictionary is missing!
