Windows Notepad back in the Microsoft Store

Windows Notepad (), is one of the most popular applications included in Microsoft's operating system. From today it is available for download again from the Microsoft Store, a few months after its withdrawal from the company.

The release of the Windows Notepad application in the Microsoft Store is released again these days, as it seems that Microsoft is not sure whether it is a good idea to keep the application in the Store or not.

The app was last removed from the Store in December 2019, and the company did not provide details about its decision.

"Thank you for all the comments you provided on the Windows Notepad version of the Store. At the moment, we have decided not to make it available to customers, "Microsoft said at the time.

Windows Notepad on the Store has some advantages that the built-in Windows application does not have. For example, it may offer easier and more frequent updates as it does not depend on Windows updates. Notebook is currently connected to Windows, which means that all application updates must be included in the new features updates released by Microsoft twice a year.

So by moving Windows Notepad to the Microsoft Store, the application can be updated more often and this is obviously very good for those who use the application on a regular basis.

“Notepad has been the fast and simple text editor in Windows for 30 years and counting στο Microsoft Store! Προβάλετε, επεξεργαστείτε και κάντε αναζήτηση άμεσα σε έγγραφα απλού κειμένου και source code,” the Microsoft Store description for the app says.

The Store version of Notepad requires Windows 10 in version 19541 (and later), according to specifications released by Microsoft. The application continues to come for free to all users.
