Then (suddenly) the system crashes with bluescreen.
A Minidump is automatically created and saved in a Minidump file.

The system cannot find the file specified."
I've tried changing the download location to...

Hello, Is there an easy way to make Notepad my default editor? Some how Wordpad is default. I read where I could go into the registry and change it there but I am not comfortable with tapering with the registry. With XP, I could change it very easily.
As a side note, presently in Windows 7...

This may sound stupid, but I'm very new to windows 7. I made a change to a file using word pad and when went to save the changes, an error box popped up saying denied. What do I have to do so I can save changes?
My wife saved her Latin lessons with WinME word pad in *.wps format. Have tried to copy them from "My Documents" via flash drive and CD but her new computer with OS Win7 does not recognize them. We want to donate the old computer but need to get those files transferred.
Would appreciate...

Hi guys,
I recently received my laptop back from Asus and now when using any word processing program I'm prompted to save via Save As pop up following almost every key stroke. I'm not sure what happened or what is going on and was hoping someone may have an idea as to how to stop this from...

Hi all,
I use wordpad 10+ times a day and what really bugs me (and I bet
I'm not alone) is having to everytime click twice the line spacing
menu to get things 'as they should be'.
So, there is the trick to make an .rtf file with, say, one space,
save it somewhere with all the formattings the...
I'm naturally dissappointed that Windows 7 has several issues that no operating system should have. One of the first problems I had was Wordpad, Notepad Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer would get exe has stopped working messages. I found Kodak drivers on my system and deleted them. I still...

This may seem lame, but it's absolutely driving me crazy because I use Wordpad very often: it seems impossible to permanently change the formatting on Wordpad now (W7 professional just upgraded from Vista business), specifically font and spacing. Every time I open a new document, it's back to...
WordPad now seems to look like Microsoft Office. I do not have Microsoft Office nor ever intend to. WordPad seems to do pretty much everything I need - except:
It doesn't seem to have a way of putting tables into a document.
The rtf format allows for tables. It can read documents with...
Documents that I saved remained in the Wordpad recent documents for a couple of days, then disappeared, then a search found no trace of the documents. Indexing is on for the whole drive. They are not in any folders that I can find.
And a perhaps related problem - the Library had labeled both...
