Fastkey expanding unknown string?

Hi
Whenever I type "WS-", Fastkeys kickin, expanding it to "WAS-". "WS-" is not in my list of text expansion strings but I know Fastkeys is causing the expansion since when it's paused it doesn't happen.
Ideas?
Thanks
Elliot

This is caused by using Auto Correct English phrase file - FastKeys checks spelling and auto-corrects.

You can disable the whole file or you can remove this particular abbreviation string only. To remove the string:
- double-click on Auto Correct English phrase file,
- click Edit File button,
- find the ws/was item and press Delete.
- press Save button.

Hi Tom
I'm in Settings but don't see the "Auto Correct English phrase file" button. Where is it?
Thanks

Text Expander module, Phrase files tab, double click Auto Correct English to edit and then press Edit File button.

Thanks for that Tom - it did the trick

BTW the new Captcha (Prove I'm not a robot) only shows advertisements after you press the "Reveal" button. The only way I can make a post is to let it play the audio - very unfortunate bad joke. I would make another post but it's very hard to do.

Thanks
