Alexander Shofner-Geidt:

I use Notepad everyday, all through the day, consistently since the
Windows 9x days of lore and legend - back when it was the wild and wooly
web, when you had only the two knobs, horizontal and vertical, to turn
in order to make images on the screen and if you made a mistake, you had
to turn it upside down and shake it to start all over... or so it
seems... anyway,

As of Windows 10 update to Version 1809, OS Build 17763.1; and its
subsequent "fix" to Version 1809, OS Build 17763.55, Notepad's code got
corrupted.

With Notepad's Format set to Word Wrap, Randomly, when I copy text to
Notepad, at the line break, it will randomly cut a word in the interior
of the word and continue the word on the next line. Any attempt to
correct it and reconnect the word on the appropriate line results in a
bevy of cascading format errors which requires a manual edit of the
entire paragraph, line by line.

This has to be traceable to some minor change some programmer made to
the Notepad code in this latest major update from v1803 to v1809, right?

Can somebody close to Mr. Bill Gates ask him to correct this as soon as
possible because it sure is costing me a lot of time?

(I can't believe NOBODY else has experienced this boogaboo... but
perhaps Google is complicit in yet another #Globalist coverup to divert
the collective American attention to a non-existant "Russian collusion"
delusion whilst Google is helping the Chinese and Latin American
countries invade and control our country using weak-minded #Democrats in
political positions to pave our ultimate demise while they chase their
ephemeral 'personal power complex[es]'...)

Notepad users, UNITE! This is full-on crisis mode.

Thanks in advance.



Notice how I said "I use Notepad almost everyday"...

Then some moron says "You sure you are using Notepad and not WordPad?"

And then starts chopping and insulting me and my original post!?!

Very bad netiquette!

S/he/it/them could simply edit out any extraneous information, from
h/er/is/its/their perspective and proceed with an intelligent and civil
request/response for clarification -- if indeed a responsive inquiry was
sincere... But OH NO! S/he/it/them just has to be a jerk, and probably
still stalks my posts making orthogonal remarks.


For the record: I was able to identify the cause of the widespread issue
and the work-around solution.
