Not sure about Windows, but Ubuntu has it's own built in spell check that runs on all text fields I type in.

It still amuses me that it flags up Ubuntu as spelt incorrectly.
 

What is a spellcheck?

A spellcheck is a software feature that is designed to identify and correct spelling errors in written text.

Why is a spellcheck important?

A spellcheck is important because it helps to ensure that written text is free of spelling errors, which can improve the overall clarity and professionalism of the writing.

How does a spellcheck work?

A spellcheck works by comparing words in a document or text against a database of correctly spelled words. If a word is not found in the database, it is flagged as a potential spelling error.

Are all spellcheck programs the same?

No, there are many different spellcheck programs available, and they may vary in terms of features, accuracy, and compatibility with different types of documents or text.

Can a spellcheck catch all errors?

No, while a spellcheck can catch many common spelling errors, it may not catch all errors. It is still important for the writer to carefully proofread their work for any errors that may have been missed by the spellcheck.
