macOS has had system-wide spell checking since 2009.

 Windows 10 has spell check, as does Windows 11. In Windows 11 it's Settings/Time and Language/Typing. It works in Notepad. Not sure why Notepad needs its own.

You can't imagine when an app to take notes...
...in ENGLISH (or whatever language the user requires)...
...would need a spell chacker.
The whole point is that to date, Notepad hasn't been able to USE the system wide spellchecker, Liarboy.
