      Hello,

      Can someone tell me how to modify autocomplete? For example, if I start typing “be”, I see the following:

      because
      becuase

      I want to delete becuase. How can I delete that entry?

      Thanks,

      Andy

        @Hiker-Guy ,

        Notepad++'s default auto-complete list includes all the words in the active document. Once you remove the misspelled word from the document, it will stop showing that in the auto-completion list.

          I would have NEVER figured that out. Thanks so much for that tip! It worked as you described. I found “becuase”, deleted it, and now don’t see it as I begin to type the letters “be…”

            FWIW it sounds like you might like the DSpellCheck plugin, since it can help deal with spelling issues like you’ve described. It doesn’t do any autocompletion AFAIK, so I don’t think it would address this specific issue.

              Wasn’t aware of the plugin. Thanks for letting me know. Got it installed and configured now.

              Thanks!
