Is Windows Notepad really "finished", though? I'm not a Windows user, but my impression was that it's still being updated with new versions of Windows.

- codesections 6y ago> According to Wikipedia[1] there was one update in Windows XP 17 years ago, then that one two years ago... that seems pretty much like 'done' to me That's not really how I read the linked Wikipedia article. It says: > Notepad was added to the Microsoft Store in August 2019… [and will be] receiving updates through the Microsoft Store. This will allow updates to the app to be delivered more frequently. I read that as indicating that development is ongoing.
