    I found out that if you don’t like the new win11 notepad with the tabs and all the other bullshit, you can just uninstall it, and the other, older, familiar notepad that was still there all the time, will take over, file type associations and all. This even worked on my work computer, where I am not an admin.

    I was quite pleased that I could do this.

      Oh good one! I was thinking about the absurdity of having to uninstall notepad when this bullshit started. Now I know it’s just a step. Thanks!

      Thanks for the tip. Tabs are dumb, auto saving is annoying, and notepad is literally only for tracking my thoughts since I’m a little scatterbrained. Otherwise I’m going to use a better option like sublime or ++.
