My Setup

• Operating System: Windows 10 1909
• App Version: 2.17.3
• Installation type: exe

Description

Current Behavior

I have updated Rocketchat from 2.17.2 to 2.17.3.
I still see the list of old dictionaries used in the old format.
But, they were installed in the dictionaries folder: C:\Program Files\Rocket.Chat\resources\dictionaries
I added the new FR dictionary from chrome.
The correction no longer works. As on the capture we see that no dictionaries are selected. That's why it doesn't work anymore. When I click to select a dictionary present on the disc, I do not have the check mark in the menu.
I do not understand how the list of old format dictionaries is still present.
There are no errors in the console.

Expected Behavior

Using dictionary

Same here.
I copied dictionary file from c:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\ru-RU-3-0.bdic to c:\Program Files\Rocket.Chat\resources\dictionaries\ru-RU.bdic but nothing happened.

The app always get the list of dictionaries by looking at the directory; nothing is cached besides the list of enabled ones. Is this happening even after restarting the app?

[Xarkam]

@tassoevan yes, is happening even deleting \AppData\Roaming\Rocket.Chat folder.

@Xarkam @ankar84 What about the %AppData%\Microsoft\Spelling\ directory? Maybe the Windows Spell Checking API is adding files there and the @felixrieseberg/spellchecker module is loading them by default.

[Xarkam]

@tassoevan no because it's come from Office

And I have more fr spelling dictionaries referenced.

I have already searched for all the .dic files on my disks and cannot find anything.
Rocketchat is installed for all users of the machine.

In my listing the fr_FR-3-0 come from chrome.
Even if the references are ghosts, I should be able to use the dictionary coming from chrome. This is not the case.

@Xarkam @ankar84 What about the %AppData%\Microsoft\Spelling\ directory? Maybe the Windows Spell Checking API is adding files there and the @felixrieseberg/spellchecker module is loading them by default.

For me it is 2 folders in c:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Spelling\ folder

I updated to 2.17.5

and I can see this:

And now I can check ru-RU

But spell check don work anyway

Then I copied dictionary file from c:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\ru-RU-3-0.bdic to c:\Program Files\Rocket.Chat\resources\dictionaries\ru-RU.bdic again and restart Rocket.Chat
And now I can not check ru-RU againg

Then deleted c:\Program Files\Rocket.Chat\resources\dictionaries\ru-RU.bdic file and restart RC and now I can ckeck ru-RU again but Russian spell check do not work

Have tested the latest version.
I can select spelling dictionnary in my list:

1. I selected fr-be but i have no idea where he finds it
2. I added fr-FR-3-0.bdic from chrome. I can't select he.

If you try to install spelling dictionnary with rocket.chat installed for all users and is not launched as administrator, you ha this error:
