Turning Off Spell Check in Chrome
Posted on 20. Aug, 2010 by Daniel Cawrey in Tutorials
While having a built-in spell checker for Chrome is helpful sometimes, it can also be a bit annoying with the amount of squiggly lines that it can create if you’re using words not traditionally found in the dictionary. If you want to turn off the default spell checker feature, here’s how.
The first thing you’ll need to do is go to the options menu under the wrench icon.
In the options menus, you will need to click on the Under the Hood tab.
From Under the Hood, you will need to scroll down to the Web Content area, and then click on the Change font and language settings button.
In the Font and Language Settings window, you’ll need to click on the Languages tab.
From there, you’ll need to uncheck the Check spelling option.
Note that Chrome does allow you to check spelling in other languages, depending on your location. While turning off the spell check option is not easy to find in the options menus of Chrome, hopefully this helps out.
