Aspell Dictionary can't be opened

aspell, permissions, spell-checking

Solution

Ensure that the security settings of the "C:/Program Files (x86)/Aspell" folder for the current user allow for modifying and writing.

I had the same issue, and this cleared it right up.

Problem

When I try to add a word or to ignore all, Aspell throws the error 'the file "C:/Program Files (x86)/Aspell/en.pws" cannot be opened for writing'. Anyone know what is causing this problem and how to fix it?
