Vscode-spell-checker: How to remove word from dictionary?

[honghui-qiao]

I added some wrong words to dictionary in vscode, how to remove them?

Good Question. I need to add this to the FAQ.

I wish this process was a bit easier.

It depends upon where you added it.

User Settings

If you added it to your user settings, then open VS Code Settings: F1 User Settings

There should be a setting cSpell.userWords that looks something like this:

"cSpell.userWords": [
    "CXLVIII",
    "DCCLXXXII",
    "Interglot",
    "MDCCLIV",
    "dicts",
    "tsmerge"
]

Remove the words you do not want in the list.

Project Settings

Project settings are generally stored in .vscode/cSpell.json found in the root of you project directory.

Look for the "words" entry:

    // words - list of words to be always considered correct
    "words": [
        "appname"
    ],
