Did you add the wrong word to the dictionary? No worries, in this guide, we'll tell you the steps to remove or add new words to the custom dictionary on Windows 10.
On Windows 10, whenever you're typing on the web using Microsoft Edge, or an app like Mail or OneNote (mobile), you can quickly right-click a misspelled word to add it to the custom dictionary when you know you have the correct spelling.

However, sometimes, you could also end up adding a wrong word to the dictionary, and Windows 10 doesn't provide an easy way to undo the change. As a result, the spell checker won't highlight it as a mistake the next time you type the word, which can cause you to submit an email or paper with grammar errors.
If you made a mistake adding a particular word using the Windows 10 spell checker, it's possible to edit the custom dictionary to remove it.
In this Windows 10 guide, we'll walk you through the steps to add or delete words from the custom dictionary.
