Firefox is forever (incorrectly) changing what I type into gibberish (it just changed "type" into "try"). How do I stop this without also stopping it giving hints about words that are actually wrong?

That sounds like an add-on. Check that out.

I have no add-ons to do with spelling.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

Firefox doesn't automatically change what you have typed. Firefox only opens a context menu when you right-click on a word that is underlined and flagged as misspelled.

Do you have a dictionary installed and selected?

You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages sub menu. At least one dictionary should be installed and have a check mark to indicate that it is selected.

  • open the "Add Dictionaries" link to install a dictionary if you do not have one.

The spelling checker is enabled if [X] "Check Spelling" in the right-click context menu has a checkmark.

You can enable or disable spell checking globally:

  • Options/Preferences -> General: Browsing: "Check my spelling as I type"

You can look here for dictionaries:

You say it isn't Firefox and I'm also informed that, for example, Facebook isn't responsible. The fact remains that something is changing what I type.

I sense a buck passing around rapidly.

Have you checked the keyboard settings in Windows Settings  ?

Note that some website disable the builtin Firefox spelling checker and use their own spelling dictionary. Such websites might include auto-correction in addition of their dictionary. You might be able to disable their native spelling checker, but to enable the Firefox spelling dictionary you would have to remove the spellcheck="false" attribute or change its value to true by using a JavaScript bookmarklet or by editing this attribute. You can usually find this attribute if you right-click in the text editor area and open the Firefox Inspector.
