Microsoft is getting rid of WordPad after 28 years – the veteran editor has been present in the OS since Windows 95::Microsoft has begun getting rid of another veteran application in its proprietary operating system. The company has released a new test build of Windows 11
Seems kinda sad. I doubt it’s a program many people use (or even know of) these days, but there is an odd charm to super simple rich text editors like WordPad and TextEdit in macOS.
I suppose AbiWord sorta fills that niche as a replacement.
Anyone remember Microsoft Office’s weird cousin, Works?
Haha I never understood why they had two office suites.
I use textedit in plain text mode daily
