Man, does ANYONE needs this? Probably no one. This addition is just another way to force people to use AI so they can gather more personal information about that person. Specially with Notepad.
Will people be able to do thing without AI on the future if it's being pushed so hard on everything? Like, they want to make our brains smoother and dumber lol
The worst part is if I'm using a work computer or something, I can't just type into notepad anymore without considering that a record is being made.
Is there a Windows+R "oldnotepad.exe" that just works pre-installed?
Notepad++ has a plugin that makes it the default even for things that would normally be go to Notepad.
I installed npp on one work computer but I don't want to on the other one. I just want to use what is already installed.
