  2. Notepad - Cant drag and drop to open txt

    Normally, if I have notepad open, I would be able to click and drag an appropriate file into notepad, like a txt file, and it would open in notepad. Now, when I click and drag files into notepad, nothing happens.

    Any Suggestions

    .txt added to Notepad text documents?

    Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Close Notepad

    Open File Explorer, then on the top menu, select View - Show and uncheck 'File Name Extensions'

    Then open Notepad and check if the .txt file extension is no longer shown
