Any way to disable spell check in steams browser? (community, overlay)
I know about the settings toggle for chat, and an old trick editing UserPrefs.json- both things ive already did, and previously the UserPrefs trick worked fine within steams internal browser... but suddenly after some update it doesnt work anymore.

By browser i mean steams own internal browser- the one that render the store and community in the windows app, and in-game what renders the overlay in-game browser.

I use the overlay browser quite a lot, including answering to threads both on steam community and elsewhere... and now half of what i write is full of the annoying red underline. Im bi-lingual btw- so on top of dictionaries not recognizing slang, games names and terms half of the time its marking everything i write as wrong.

Anyone knows a fix, workaround anything? Its driving me mad!!

It seems that after the latest update, Steam no longer respects the changes made in UserPrefs.json to disable spell check in the internal browser. There's no official option to turn it off in the settings right now, and the usual methods no longer work. You might have to wait for a future update that brings this feature back, or look into workarounds like disabling spell check through Windows settings or using browser extensions in Steam if they ever become supported.
