RESOLVED The system cannot find the file specified

Post by *jeanpichette »

I'm trying to change the Settings Directly and I get this message.
The message also appears when I use the Multi-Rename Tool and 'Edit Names' with Notepad.
I tried re-installing. I'm using Windows 10, Version 10.0.19042 Build 19042
Any help most welcome!

Which Windows version do you use? Does it have notepad.exe in C:\Windows and/or C:\Windows\system32?

How is it possible to uninstall Notepad? And what's the benefit?

I have the same question :)
I use NotePad Replacer to get SynWrite as better Notepad
but I would never come to the idea to uninstall Notepad.
