Windows 10: How can I add a password directly to a Note pad file?

I have a note pad file on my desktop which I would like to password protect. How can I do this on the file itself, without putting it into a separate programme for encryption, for example adding it to a zip file which has a password.


Thanks.

:)

 

When I enter the event in the note pad and then close the screen, when I come back to the note pad the entries are all gone

Hi,

whenever we type any content in notepad and close it without saving then all the contents will get erased. To get the contents saved in your system you need to save the files.

Follow the steps below and check if it help.

• Open the note pad, enter the details.
• Click save on the top left
• Give a name to the file.
• Click on Save button. The files will get saved in the particular location.

I hope the information is helpful.

Thank you.

Unable to open PDF file directly from WINZIP file

Thanks for the help. I tried the suggested steps. It did not work for me. When clicked on pdf files, now it opens with acrobat reader as opposed to Edge. But then I still cannot open pdf files directly form zip file.
