Windows 10: Getting the old version of Notepad on Windows 11

Hello, I am a blind user who frequently uses the Notepad application. On my Windows 11 laptop, I’m having difficulty to read the content and Braille. I can hear it with my screen reader, but I can’t read it properly. So, when I want to write code properly, I use my Windows 10 PC. Is there a way to have the old version of Notepad? If not, is there any alternative?Regards,Olivier

Notepad on Windows 7\

Suggestion would be uninstall then new install on Win7. Maybe an older version would work better? A list, maybe Version 7?

Hi John,

To help resolve the issue regarding the opening of notepad during startup, we suggest that you open the startup items and check if it's added.

Follow these steps:

• Press Windows + X.
• Select Task Manager.
• If this is the first time you opened Task Manager, you'll get a compact list of running apps. Just select
  More details to open the full view.
• Once the full view is opened, click Startup tab.
• If Notepad is listed, right-click on
  Notepad then select disable.

Let us know the result.
