Microsoft announced today that it will deprecate WordPad with a future Windows update as it's no longer under active development, though the company did not specify the precise timing of this change.

      Yes, I would say notepad would be the bigger loss. But wordpad is still the default for people before they learn about things like notepad++

        Notepad is the default text editor on Windows. I’d be surprised if most people even knew WordPad existed.

          Interestingly enough I have seen a lot of new PCs that have Wordpad as default (mostly dells and some HPs).
