Microsoft Discontinues Support for WordPad and Removes It from Windows 11

Microsoft will no longer support the WordPad text editor and release updates for it. Representatives of the company reported this in the updated documentation.

In addition, a future Windows 11 update will remove the program from the operating system. To continue working with text documents, Microsoft recommends using Word from the Office package, and for simple TXT files, Notepad.

Previously, Microsoft released a built-in built-in archiver. It turned out that it works much slower than the free 7-Zip and WinRAR familiar to users. In addition, it lacks some of the features of third-party applications, such as unpacking progress.
