Installing Spell Checker

    Notepad++ installed on a SanDisk U3 flash drive and it works perfectly.
    Tried to install Spell Checker:
    SANDISK/System/Apps/Notepad++/plugins/
    In what directory should the Spell Checker be placed?
    In what directory should the dictionary be placed?
    As currently configured, Aspell-en-0.50-2-3.exe is in the plugins folder, along with folders data, dict and doc.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks.

      I installed Aspell inside my main Notepad++ folder, thus Notepad++/Aspell.

      You should be able to simply drag the Aspell folder from it's plugins location and drop it one level up in the Notepad++ folder. I'm guessing that will take care of it. Afterwards, you might have to restart N++

      I just dragged my Aspell folder to the plugins folder and got an error. Dragged it back and it worked again. I believe this is because the path the spellchecker uses to find Aspell is "../Aspell"
