Windows 10: Changing default settings for MS Wordpad?

Is there some way to change the default settings for MS Word in Win10?

Specifically, I would the following to be default:

Line spacing: 1.00

Add 10 pt space after paragraph (FALSE)

Word wrap: Wrap to window

:)

 

Setting default to duplex in Microsoft Edge

I'm using Windows 10 in Microsoft Surface; there doesn't seem to be a way to change the default for printing to duplex. My Brother printer is set up to default to duplex, but MS Edge is sending single side to the printer, and it appears to be overriding
the printer default. Where do I set MS Edge to default to duplex? I don't want to have to change it every time -- and it's annoying, btw, that I can't open a pdf from IE.

 

Reset Regedit window size

I accidentally changed the default window size and position of regedit.exe on my Windows 10 PC, and I tend to go nuts whenever the default setting was changed. So is there a way to reset this setting to default? And BTW is there a generic way to do the same
on other MS/3rd party software?

There used to be a program one could run that did this: wordpadfix.msi

- it still seems to work.

Otherwise, use one of the various free small editors- plenty to choose from.

 

Is the old WinXP style wordpad in Win10, hidden somewhere? Or can it be downloaded from somewhere?

(I don't know whether Win7 or 8 wordpad is different, I went from WinXP->Win10, but I'd like the kind of wordpad that was in XP)

 

So this works in 10? It says in the link that its for Win7.

 

I think it will look different due to the Ribbons styling. I have been able to install Office 2000 on the Insider Preview/IP version of Win10, basics work fine but wouldn't count on Outlook or Access to do the same, they are more powerful programs.

 

It did work once in the session in which I installed it again, but not thereafter. No surprise really.

Best advice: simply use a different editor.
Example: Polyedit lite if you want something smaller than an office program with more capability including spell check:
