Windows will no longer have an integrated basic rich-text-based word app.

      I’ve had no real issuses with the new notepad.

      I just hope that they don’t continue adding too much stuff to it and it becomes the new wordpad and we don’t have a basic box to put text anymore.

        One of my biggest problems with the new notepad is you’ve lost using it as a forgettable scratch space. Anything you put in the new Notepad now gets written to your drive, even if you don’t save the file.

        You can’t type or copy/paste anything sensitive into notepad anymore as a temporary space even if you don’t save the file.

            Sure, and I do that too, but that a problem: you’re limited to only a single line of text about 200 characters long

          There is a setting to start with a fresh window. But rereading the text kinda concerns me. Starting a new session is when the previous one is discarded?

            Here’s a great video going down to the hex level for how to extract the cleartext out of unsaved Notepad files using the temp cache files: video
