NotePad.Exe For WinME ?

[Coaster]

Hello Folks,

I somehow (don’t ask – I don’t know how) I deleted my Note Pad .exe executable file.

I am running WinME and don’t have System File Restore and wondering how I can acquire a copy of NotePad.exe for WinMe.

If possible could somebody post a copy (WinME) or tell me where I can get a copy.

Regards,
Coaster

Pokopiko,

Great to see that you are still here.

Yes I have the WinMe Installation Compact Disc. WinME doesn’t have System File Restore and I am unaware of how to extract NotePad.Exe from the Disc.

Can you educate me on how to do this?

Thanks,
Coaster

Or visit:

And pick up a "Notepad replacement" that doesn't have the 64k limit - no more "file too big, would you like to open in wordpad?"

In alt.comp.freeware (newsgroup) the pricelessware 2003 process is starting - it makes the warez/non warez argument here look like a tea party (ok, so I exaggerate).

Personally, I've stuck by "Programmers File Editor" as my "large" file editor - it also handles both unix and PC style line breaks!

It's in a CAB file is it not?

@Pokopiko,

Thanks for informing me where NotePad.Exe was located in my WinME installation disc.

I used WinRar and extracted NotePad.Exe from the WinME win_17.cab file.


@LTR12101B,

Thanks for providing information on the alternatives to Microsoft NotePad.Exe
