    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.

    Replace Notepad in Windows 10 1909 with Dark Notepad

    I don't find anything from Dark Notepad authors on how to set it as Default. So I would contact them through the link which appear at the bottom of their Download page in MS Store app, which every app maker must provide to support their app. Let them know
    you're airing this in Microsoft Community forums where we are waiting to hear how they suggest to do this.

    There is another Notepad++ app here that gives some steps which it provides to replace the default in it's Settings:

    If your Dark Notepad app doesn't have similar then toward the end of that tutorial there is a registry edit to replace the Notepad default you can try.

    Make sure to set a System Restore point first so you can go back if necessary:
