    Notepad - Lost ability to exit without Saving

    I am surprised by your suggestion of a Disk error checking scan .... although I will definately consiider it as my bigger Lenovo laptop has been effectively "Blue Screening" and going into Restarts most days.

    Lenovo Laptop - Problems with Notepad Saving (forced "Save As" ... no option to "Don't save") and also problems with Right click and Select "Properties" (doesn't answer) ... Win !0 ... other non microsoft software (libre Office) allows "Don't Save"

    ASUS Mini Laptop ... Terribly Slow 1Ghz ... but great for 10KG baggage allowance on Cabin Baggage only Flights when Hold Luggage would cost a lot.... Also Win 10 .... Can "Don't Save" out of Notepad and I think right click for Properties amazingly shows
    Prooperties rather than doing nothing.

    If there are disk errors surely it would have to be at the exact point where the Notepad Software Program is stored.... Otherwise why wouldn't these Notepad programs work the same.

    I often use Notepad to get rid of Formatting ... Fonts .... Html etc etc and get to the native text. I therefore don't need to save the item as I have just used it as a temporay scratch pad.

    Notepad is closing automatically Windows 11 Home

    In Notepad 11 (version 11.2302), the application closes automatically without prompting for confirmation, even if there are unsaved changes. This can cause users to lose their work if they accidentally press Ctrl + W or click on the Close button. People who work with keyboards for long hours, such as developers, software engineers, and coders, are prone to encounter these issues.

    Steps to Reproduce:

    Open Notepad 11.
    Type some text in the editor.
    Press Ctrl + W or click on the Close button.
    Note that the application closes without asking for confirmation or saving changes.

    Expected Behavior: Notepad should prompt for confirmation when closing the application, giving the user a chance to save any unsaved changes before exiting.

    Actual Behavior: Notepad 11 closes automatically without asking for confirmation, potentially causing data loss.

    Possible Solution: Implement a confirmation dialog when closing Notepad 11 to prevent accidental closures and data loss. Additionally, adding an auto-save feature could help users recover their work in case of unexpected closures.

    Severity: High, as it can cause users to lose their work without warning.

    Reproducibility: Always.

    Notepad in Windows 11

    I am blind and use a Screen Reader program. In Windows 11 I don't get to use keyboard functions like ALT+F Is this something new in Windows 11 Notepad? Can it be corrected so I can use the Keyboard keys to Save, Exit, or Save As functions?
