Hi there,

I am contacting you as advised by Mr McKenna (see Below) during a discussion 
about an issue I’m having with Openoffice. I have followed Mr McKenna’s 
instructions regarding resetting the profile but I’m still having no luck – the 
pathway listed [under Paths Used by Openoffice] does not actually give the 
correct location for the program (see attached capture) – I have been unable to 
located the program data in order to reset the profile. It seems very strange 
to me that the program itself would identify a pathway that doesn’t exist...

[the original issue was that the English UK dictionary has been installed but 
appears to contain no words – when I run spellcheck it underlines every single 
word and has to suggestions)

I assume that this is something to do with Windows 10 as I have never had such 
an issue before and this is a relatively new laptop with Windows 10 installed.

If you can give any advice on how to reset the profile in windows 10 or on any 
other way to get the spellcheck working I would be extremely grateful!  This 
request is urgent, I need to be able to spellcheck job applications to be 
submitted asap.

Many many thanks!

To find the path to your profile do the following
Start OpenOffice
click tools->option
In the left pane of window that opens be sure that the entry OpenOffice is
expanded. If it isn't click the plus sign next to it.
Once it is expanded click paths
The right pane will show a list with the headings type path
The first entry should be AutoCorrect followed by a string.
EXAMPLE
AutoCorrect C:\Users\Keith McKenna\AppData\Roaming\OpenOffice\4\user\autocorr
That string is the path into the OpenOffice profile.
Now open Windows Explorer and navigate through the path until you find the
OpenOffice folder.
From there follow the steps in the original link to reset the profile.

If you are stilling having difficulties resetting the profile. A better place
to get help would be posting your question either the user mailing list at
mailto:users@openoffice.apache.org or the User Forum at
http://forum.openoffice.org/
