Notepad opens on startup

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.
