A couple of times now I’ve had to hunt down the location of the dictionary for Firefox because in the popup for a misspelled word has ‘Add to dictionary’ too close to the word I want to change to (and now I’ve inserted a misspelling into my personal dictionary).
The location of the dictionary for Firefox (under Windows) is: somewhere under Documents and Settings is the file persdict.dat
.
Maybe this time I’ll remember it. I suggest this behaviour shows a usability problem.
I found mine under:
C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ls709jdm.default
Just for your future reference 🙂
