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.
