How can I pull the red underline that occurs under some proper nouns and correct spelling?

[yaller 1]

I write a novel with Evernote.

However, the recent spelling function put pressure on my novel.

Please make it possible to turn off and turn on spelling function.

Although it was not easy to change the app because there were a lot of notes made in Evernote, if the problem persists, I am willing to move to another app without spelling marks.
With years of affection with this program, I leave this article.
I hope for a quick solution.

I have the exact same problem. It drives me nuts, that I can't turn it off. I have turned off "Highlight misspelled words" in Windows 10 settings, but it still underlines every single word I write in my notes, as I often take notes in different languages. I can't abstract from it, when I'm writing longer texts, so I have turned to writing my notes in Notepad and then copy paste it to Evernote afterwards. That is just counter-productive. 

I generally hate spelling aids. Notes are not always 100% percent correct, as the notetaking is often done in haste. I want my notetaking app to be like my Moleskine notebook. Just a blank canvas in most cases. 

Evernote, please fix this.

Please reply as soon as possible, it makes me mad after updating the app.

Yes, please make it possible to turn off the spell check (the red dotted line under words). When I write or read a note in Slovene (or some other non-English language), the red dots under every word drive me nuts. Updates should be improvements, not cause further annoyance!

Have the exact same problem. When I type in Estonian every word is underlined, and even when I turned off autocorrect in the Windows settings it had no effect on Evernote.

As a new Evernote user, I have found this problem immediately. If it continues I won't be an Evernote user much longer and I certainly wouldn't pay for such a buggy product. There is no way to turn it off!

"If a word in your note doesn't match your device's dictionary, the word will be called out with a red squiggled underline. There's no spell check feature built into Evernote for Windows."

I have this issue too. It's not the red squiggly line. It's the dotted line as posted above by rolig. I cannot find a way to remove it. Please advise.

File menu / settings / remove the check mark at spell checking.

At least this is where it is located on the Mac client (There the file menu is called Evernote).

In the Windows app its in the Tools menu then Preferences.

In Evernote App:

Tools -> Settings -> Preferences -> Application -> Language -> Uncheck "Check spelling while typing"

@amoreux, welcome to the forums. Out of curiosity, why are you responding to a post almost 2 years old, offering information that was already given?
