    Hello, I recently encountered a problem with Notepad. The problem I encountered was that the Notepad app wouldn't open, so I went into the Optional features setting and uninstalled the app. I then proceeded to reinstall the app again, but upon clicking the install button, I got an error stating: Install failed - Error code: 0x800F0955I really need to reinstall the app!Edition Windows 10 Pro Version 21H1 OS build 19043.1889 Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.4180.0

    [Solved] Windows 10 keeps reinstalling KB3119142

    I noticed quite some time ago that KB3119142 (Update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Update 4 Redistributable Package) kept reinstalling itself for some reason. At least once daily. Sometimes up to several times a day. I just ignored it. It didn't seem to be doing any harm. And I figured they'd eventually fix it. Well...days turned into weeks, weeks into months, with no end to the problem in sight. It dragged on unsolved for at least the last few months. Literally reinstalling itself hundreds of(at least a hundred, felt like more) times in that period of time.

    So I finally googled it a couple days ago. And just got around to fixing it today. Which appears to have worked. And it couldn't have been easier to do. I feel so stupid to have let it intimidate me for so long.*Oops! How to reinstall Notepad for Windows 10? :oops:
    Below are links to the thread that I got the fix idea from, and the official MS support info page for KB3119142(from which I quoted the above).
