minus-squarecomador @lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-23 months agoMicrosoft: We can’t spy on your usage when you use wordpad, use O365 instead! (guessing). TBH, I haven’t used wordpad since Windows 98. Not saying others don’t use it, but Notepad++ and a myriad of other options are better anyway.

minus-square👍Maximum Derek👍@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·3 months agoYeah, though I don’t know if it graduated beta, because I don’t use windows 11.

minus-squareSentient Loom@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·3 months agoDoes Notepad++ allow rich text?
minus-squarecomador @lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoOn a default install on NP++ you can only save as rtf, but there are addable plugins that give some rtf functionality. So as a direct answer, no, it doesn’t, but it can.
