Flyspell in Emacs 26.1 seems to require a version of Aspell that is not officially available for Windows. I might need to put off the upgrade until I can attempt to compile a newer Aspell for Windows myself.

"Error enabling Flyspell mode: (aspell release 0.60 or greater is required)"

In case anyone else was facing this problem (and isn't too committed to Aspell as a backend for Flyspell), the version of Hunspell from ezwinports[1] (version 1.3.2 at time of posting) seems to be working with Emacs 26.1 on Windows.

I'm not sure how you feel about cygwin? aspell 0.6 is available from there, and I've just tried it out with emacs and it works well.
