I noticed on Windows 10 Evernote latest stable version 6.9.7.6770, all the words I spellcheck turn up in the Downloads folder of all places, in a file called Custom Dictionary.txt. Opening the file shows all the added words all crammed together in alphabetical order with a checksum at the end that changes after every addition. Just for fun I shut down Evernote and moved the custom dictionary files to another folder, then started Evernote again. You guessed it: all the red underlines reappeared in all my notes. However reinstating the custom dictionary back to the Downloads folder breaks the spellchecking system - words are not added to the old custom dictionary, and a new dictionary is not generated either. I had to reinstall Evernote, and add all the words back to the dictionary again. Same issue with the latest beta 6.10.1.6801 So if you're like me and routinely delete the contents of the Downloads folder, make sure you preserve the Custom Dictionary files.
