    Delete misspelled words in Win 10 onscreen Keyboard auto-suggest memory?

    Have a POS Dell touchscreen laptop running Win 10. The onscreen keyboard has somehow accumulated/saved a bunch of misspelled words in its memory and I cannot figure out how to purge the misspellings. Is there no way to do so sans a complete wipe and reload of Win 10?

      I'm sure there's a way. Let me look for how to edit the custom dictionary.

      Go here:

          Went to your search results and using the first one linked below, get to step 5 and when I try to open the file default.acl, get a popup with the message "How do you want to open this file?". So, how do I go about opening the file as I can't seem to open it?

                  Is this in a browser?
                  Google?
                  Brave?
                  IE?
                  Chrome?
                  Edge?
                  Etc

                  Is this in Microsoft Word? or in a word processing app?

                  Are the typo's inside an Email app?
                  Rule 1- ALL GUNS ARE ALWAYS LOADED

                  Rule 2 -NEVER LET THE MUZZLE COVER ANYTHING YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO DESTROY (including your hands and legs)

                  Rule 3 -KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOUR SIGHTS ARE ON THE TARGET

                  Rule 4 -BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET AND WHAT IS BEYOND IT

                      It's the Onscreen Keyboard that came as part of Win 10. It has a predictive text pane across the top that suggests words as I type. I mainly type using my mouse as the laptop sits on a stand next to my recliner. All I want to do is delete the misspelled words that the system has stored in memory.
