    The only way I know on Windows is to use File Explorer to navigate to  :
    C: > Users > username > AppData >LocaLow > Adobe > Linguistics > UserDictionaries > ATE User Dictionary > all > added.txt

    Open file added.txt using notepad then edit the entry, save and close

    Hi Richard,

    Not sure if I understand the issue correctly, could you please provide some more detail?
    A screenshot would be helpful as well.

    Also, what version of Photoshop and the Operating System you're using?

    Regards,
    Sahil

    I am using Adobe Photoshop CC. I did a spell check and when it underlined a word I accidentally added it to the dictionary rather than ignore (the spelling mistake was deliberate)..
