Spellchecker not working in Protonmail - they say it is a Firefox problem
I use Protonmail - a web-based email app. They do not provide spellchecking, but say that the Firefox spellchecker should work in their email composer (it used to work so for me!) but, despite having Settings/General/Spellchecker ticked, and a dictionary (GB) selected (and, I see, the spellchecker working in this dialogue box) it is not working in the Protonmail composer.
Help!!

When you right-click the compose area in Proton Mail, is there a check mark next to "Check Spelling"? If not, can you turn it on by clicking that menu item?

Thank you jscher2000: I right-clicked in the composer box and the Check Spelling box was ticked...however, none of the languages was ticked. I clicked on English (GB) without effect (I have downloaded this dictionary before) so I clicked add dictionary, and added the relevant one. In this dialogue, I also right-clicked, to find that the English (US) language was selected, and that the English (GB) box did not respond, so I again did add dictionary, and am able to use a British English spell checker. Thank you so much jscher2000! A simple solution!! Andrew Corser
I'm glad you were able to fill in all the extra steps.
