Notepad is, in fact, under active development. They recently upgraded find and replace so it works 90% of the time instead of 30% and added some annoying restore session by default feature. not to mention tabs

I'd never had an issue with find and replace, but then I tend to install notepad++ straight away.

I interviewed at Microsoft decades ago and found a bug in notepad during my interview when they gave me a laptop and asked me how I would test notepad.

Their faces indicated that this was not supposed to be a productive exercise.
