When I right click a word with red underline I get a long menu with add to dictionary on top. Spell check is NOT correcting the misspell or giving suggestions as it used to do. How can I get this back??

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
