how disable "hyphenation breaks may change" warning?

[Sam A.]

Upon opening an INDD file, I get the following warning:

Hyphenation breaks or hyphenation spelling changes may change if you edit the text in this document.

The following hyphenation services are not installed on this system – [product name]

The file opens OK, but if you work on a book with many such files, having to click OK for each file you open is cumbersome.

I produced the files in question on another computer, years ago, and on my current computer the [product name] is not installed any longer. It would be nice if I could tell ID to stop looking for [product name] (and stop warning me about it) but I fail to find out where ID stores this piece of information. Does anyone know this?

Hi Samar:

Thank you! Changing the Language as well as the Hyphenation and Spelling settings in the Preferences seems to be the key to resolving the issue.

However, when I change these settings in a file and click OK and close the file, and then reopen it, the warning may reappear, and going back to the same settings I discover that they have reverted to the old settings. Going through all paragraph styles and making sure that Advanced Character Formats > Language is set as in the Preferences dialog does not help either. This seems buggy to me. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.
