Question Need help with recent problems with Calibre spellcheck

I am the recipient of a few scanned out-of-print books that are very hard to read as the punctuation is all missing. (eg. Im whos hes shes its theyre theyve weve etc.)

I edited the first two books with no problems. The Calibre spellcheck was able to find all of these contraction problems and I could correct them easily in bulk.

Now I am trying to edit the next book and spellcheck is only flagging proper names and none of the misspelled contractions.

Did I somehow screw up the spellcheck dictionary and inadvertently add in all of the improper contractions?

How would I go about resetting or reloading the default dictionary again?

I'm running the most recent version of Calibre.

Thanks for any help on this.
