← Back to context Comment by tracker1 1 day ago If this was actually (pre)installed with Windows, I wouldn't mind the changes to notepad nearly as much. 4 comments tracker1 Reply Someone1234 1 day ago While I'd love it installed by default, I still very much mind that they're ruining Notepad.Plus this Markdown preview functionality just caused Notepad to have a Remote Code Execution Vulnerability in it. tracker1 1 day ago Oh it's still pretty stupid, and I think they should have simply resurrected the Wordpad name for this, and maybe a conversion utility for opening doc/rtf files to markdown in the editor for older file support. Someone1234 1 day ago Agreed. Resurrecting Wordpad and making it really cool/useful would make everyone happy.They can add as much AI and Markdown as they want to Wordpad as far as I'm concerned. Just leave my dumb featureless utility alone. noinsight 1 day ago It is preinstalled. Server 2025 (even Core Edition) and Windows 11 24H2 (or 25H2, not sure)...
