Windows 10: accidently deleted notepad document

I accidently deleted a notepad document. Can i get it back?

:)

 

Notepad accidently deleted from my app list

I accidently deleted Notepad from my app list (on the far left of the windows 10 start menu) when creating a shortcut onto my start menu. How do I place it back into that app list? When I went into Notepad's file location it does not give an option to place
it into the App List; it only gave me the option of adding it to my start bar. I did place a shortcut onto my start bar, but I really would like it to also be in the app list. Is it possible to send it back to the App List?

Thank you very much for any advice on this.

 

how can edit the format of documents in notepad

Hi Ramon,

We understand that you'd like to edit the format of documents using Notepad application.

If you're trying to open an Office document like Word or Excel using Notepad, be informed that since the app only detect pure text, it will lose all the format and objects originally came with the document.

You can follow these steps to open a document in Notepad:

1. Right-click the document file.

2. Select Open With, and select Notepad. If not its not on the list, click
Choose another app.

3. Select Notepad, and click OK.

Kindly post back if you have further concerns.

 

Left Margin in Notepad documents Changed

Hi,

We tried to replicate the issue but we cannot find any settings that would adjust that little space before the first letter on your notepad. Nevertheless, we recommend that you perform the following steps to reset the settings of notepad to its default:

• Make sure that Notepad is closed before you proceed.
  
• In Cortana, type Regedit.
• Select HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
• Look for SOFTWARE and double-click.
• Select Microsoft.
• Look for the folder Notepad and right-click.
• Select Delete and click Yes.
• Close the Registry Editor window.

After performing the following steps, you can open again your notepad file and check if you now have that little space before the first letter.

Please let us know if this helped you resolve the issue.
