I god damn hate that they started messing around in notepad.

I use it for temporary notes. Suddenly it's got tabs, and everything I close it and open it again shit is still there. It was a feature to me that I didn't have to actively decide to remove stuff written. They messed with my workflow now I'm piling up tabs with shit in yet another location.

I want to revert to the oldest notepad I can find.
