I always thought wordpad was underappreciated

    Wordpad always felt like a transitional between Notepad and Office, but for the average person, the transitional wasn’t needed. If you wanted no frills, notepad was right there. If you needed extras why not just use Office just in case you needed more extras then you thought?

    Of course now I use Notepad++ instead of notepad so it fills the Notepad and Wordpad spots.

      Well I mean if you wanted something more than notepad and you didn’t want to pay, WordPad was right there… Of course you could install something else but this was included.

      Back in the day I used wordpad to edit the various configs for Minecraft mods because it handled json and yaml files very well
