I still think the reason for the different behaviour lies in some plugin that
initializes your 'spellfile' option on Ubuntu but does not on Windows -- either
because it's missing or it does not work or behaves differently.
Please check on Ubuntu how the 'spellfile' option was set by executing the
command
:verbose set spellfile
Ah, I just saw this paragraph at ":help 'spellfile'":
When a word is added while this option is empty Vim will set it for
you: Using the first directory in 'runtimepath' that is writable. If
there is no "spell" directory yet it will be created. For the file
name the first language name that appears in 'spelllang' is used,
ignoring the region.
Is at least one directory in you runtimepath writable?
Regards,
Jürgen
