Windows 10: How to Change Font Color in Notepad?

I'm trying to use Notepad to write a .txt document, and I'd like to select certain parts to change the color of the text, but there's not option for that. Looking at other sites, they state to look under Settings > Style Configurator and change it to Global Override, but my form of Notepad doesn't have an option to click "Settings."

It's just "File" "Edit" "Format" "View" "Help" in that order. Do I need to get a different version of Notepad? I just want to edit text color in a .txt document, so if there's another application that's useful for that, I'd be thankful.

on the keyboard.

2. Click on the Personalization option.

3. Now click on Colors option.

4. Click on the preferred color from the list of colors.

Open font settings by clicking on start, click on control panel, and then click on appearance and personalization, under fonts click on change font settings. And select the font size.

Step 2:

If you’re trying to change windows font size then please follow the steps below:

To change Windows fonts

1. Open Appearance Settings by clicking the Start button and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type window color, and then click Change window colors and
metrics.

2. In the Item list, click the part of Windows that you want to change the font for. For example, if you want to change the menu font, click Menu in the list. Then, make any of the following changes:

· In the Font list, click the font that you want to use.

· In the Size list, click the font size that you want.

· In the Color list, click the font color that you want.

3. Repeat these steps for each item that you want to make changes to, and then click OK.

Does that help?
