Win11 was great for me, but recently the shoe-horning of Copilot/AI into everything has been degrading my experience.
The worst of it being Notepad.
I use Notepad _constantly_. I am always pasting little bits of text or drafts of things in ephemeral tabs for later reference.
For the first time in Windows history, there is PERCEIVABLE FUCKING LATENCY trying to type ... in NOTEPAD.EXE
Idk what the execs are smoking there, but they need to fix this ASAP.
- anthk 1y agoUse Notepad2. https://xhmikosr.github.io/notepad2-mod/screenshots https://xhmikosr.github.io/notepad2-mod/screenshots
- pipes 1y agoOr notepad++
- nipperkinfeet 1y agoUse the newest fork, https://github.com/zufuliu/notepad4 https://github.com/zufuliu/notepad4. That's what I switched to when Microsoft started bloating up Notepad.
- EvanAnderson 1y agoThe new Notepad can be removed. I'm on mobile right now and don't have the docs handy, but it will be a Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage command in PowerShell. The old Notepad is still there once you remove the odious new one.
- gavinray 1y agoOh, that is great to know, thank you!
