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.

    Doesn’t have formatting, unless Notepad has got really adventurous at some point in the last decade or two.

      I recently noticed notepad now displays line numbers, so there has been some improvement… But it still shits the bed if you try to open a file that’s more than a few megs…

        I mean, I’d never use Notepad. Download Notepad++, it’s better in literally every way.

          Oh yes, I use notepad++ regularly. I opened something with notepad by accident the other day and happened to notice the change.
