Methok, I had the same problem on one computer. On another the spell check worked fine. What I found on the problem one is that while I had installed Aspell I had not installed a dictionary. I downloaded and installed a dictionary and all is well. - Mike

Hi, When ever I try to use spell checker I get a window pop saying:
GNU Aspell or dictionaries are missing
Downlaod installation files here:
blah blah
If Aspell is already installed, do correction of
relative path to aspell-15.dll and restart:
TEXT AREA
Ok, I have it installed and change the text in teh text area to:
C:\Program Files\Aspell\bin
click ok, then close Notepad++.
Restart, click spellchecker again and same thing pops up.
Anyone offer any advice please?
Thank you.

I had a few problems getting a spell-checker plugin to work correctly with Notepadd++ After several attempts and in this order, it worked!
From: http://aspell.net/win32/
1: Install GNU Full Installer "Aspell-0-50-3-3-Setup" to default location: C:\Program Files\Aspell
2: Install "Aspell-en-0.50-2-3" (English dictionary)
3: Install Notepad++ "npp.5.4.1.Installer" to “C:\Program Files\Aspell\bin”
4: Launch Notepad++
In my spellchecker.ini file I have the following:
[Spell-Checker]
Current Language=en
Relative Path=..\Aspell\bin
Try making the path to Aspell relative as above.

Thank you for your reply but I cant even find a spellchecker.ini file.
its not good not having a spell checker. haha
Thanks all the same.
- Methok
The SpellChecker.ini file should be in the plugins\Config folder.
If it's not there create one as a text file using the 3 lines I noted above.
See if that helps.
