The problem has been solved by realizing with Joost's help that the
Dictionary path in the registry points to C:\aspell\lib\aspell-0.60 rather
than C:\aspell\Dictionary where the dictionaries get placed. I did not want
to change the registry, so I simply copied files from C:\aspell\Dictionary
to C:\aspell\lib\aspell-0.60 and spellchecker started working.
I hope this helps people experiencing similar problem with the aspell.
Thank you

It did not work when running lyxc from DOS command prompt.
I get the following message:
C:\LYX\LYX14\BIN>lyxc
lyx: Disabling LyX socket.
Dialog "spellchecker" failed to translate the data string passed to

Any suggestions?

Hopefully a developer knows what that message means (I don't). In the
meantime, is English your default language when you use LyX? If not, do
you have Documents->Settings->Language set to English, and do you have
Tools->Languages->Spellchecker->Alternative language: set to en_US?
