[Resolved] My browsers have defected from America to England

[T. Brown 1st MRB]

Name: Tim Brown

Rank: GySgt.

Type of issue: Not sure

Brief Description of Issue: Recently, my browser (Chrome) has been somehow switched to England English spell-check, so that words like "color" will be marked as spelled incorrectly, whereas colour is right. This problem occurs in any website on Chrome and Firefox, but NOT in other word-processing programs like Word/Excel. I did not make any changes to any Language in any places, so I'm a bit confused as to where this came from or why it has just suddenly become like this. It isn't a huge issue since my writing programs were not affected, but it is a slight nuisance. Anyone experiencing this as well (thinking maybe an update did this, although that wouldn't explain why Firefox is affected too)? Or anyone have any ideas on either how to fix it, or more importantly, what could have happened that caused this? In return for your help, I will buy you the steam game Magical Hedgehog 5: Hedgehogs in Manhattan. This latest game in the Hedgehog series includes full hedgehog-on-hedgehog intercourse, as well as a mini-game where you get to manually collect the semen from a hedgehog in heat. Fun for all ages.

In Chrome, at the top right of the screen you will see a button with three horizontal lines. Click that, and click the settings option.

On the settings page, you will see an option to view advanced settings at the bottom of the page. Click it.

Scroll down until you see the languages section. Click the button that reads "Languages and spellchecker settings"

Set the language to whichever you like.

FireFox would be a similar setup, just find the options section and you should be able to find a language setting.

Probably should have mentioned that I tried that and made sure the settings were to English (American), and even made it something else and then switched back to English (American)...yet still saying color is spelled wrong. Did not try it in firefox yet.

However, I just got an idea. I do have a add-on/plugin dictionary and spell-checker thing, I wonder if that is the source! Am going to fiddle with that and see what happens, will report back momentarily.

[edit] disabled the extension, still trying to correct color. DANGIT.

[edit2] Changed the setting on Firefox, then back to English (American) and that fixed it. Chrome, however, still hates freedom, so at least the problem is a little more isolated now, appears just to be Chrome-related.

[edit3] FIXED IT. Had to mark the option in the Language settings to "Use this language for spell-checking", even though it appeared to already have been marked. Thanks Holland! Problem solved.
