why I wouldn't be able to save a .txt or an 'all files' document in Notepad? I don't get any errors or anything, just no response when I hit the 'save' button. I'm running a Dell Inspiron laptop, about seven months old and have all the latest service packs and such.
View 2 RepliesA few weeks ago I changed the file association for .html files to open with Notepad (instead of IE) and since then I have noticed that often when I perform a Save As action in Notepad (on an .html file) and then press the Enter key (as opposed to the Save button) Notepad "stops working" and generates the following message:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Application Name: NOTEPAD.EXE
Application Version: 6.1.7600.16385
[Code]......
Note that I used a program called Default Programs Editor to make the change. Has anyone seen anything like this? Is there a way to reinstall Notepad independently? In every other way Notepad works fine.
PS: As for the reason I used a third party app to change the default program, I tried to do it "normally" but it wasn't sticking. But I realized after that the reason it wasn't sticking is because that change somehow prompted IE to think it wasn't the default browser, and when the message came out asking me if I wanted to make IE the default browser, it undid the file association to Notepad. I only realized this after the fact.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI changed via the dialog the TEXT SIZE via the screen resolution in the control panel to CUSTOM SIZE.With one of the newer "Cinema" or Very Wide screen (1680 X 900) displays after I'd increased the text size to over 160 % I didn't get the possibility to SAVE any documents any more via the SAVE AS button. The SAVE dialog would appear but the SAVE button was missing.The effect was noticed in Office 2007 (all programs) Notepad etc etc.Seems to be a Windows fault as this should not be allowed to happen.on more traditional "Squarer" type monitors -- no problem.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there any way to set the default save location folder for downloads in IE8 to the last folder that the same file type was saved in? It makes no sense to default to a single folder and have to browse through to the desired folder for every single download, so I assume there has to be an option somewhere.

I just got Windows 7 recently. Was trying to open an old .txt file and the file could only be viewed as the tiny thumbnail at the bottom. My glasses may need to be changed but I don't think anyone can read that small!! You can visually see notepad opening a new window and flying to the right edge of the screen as it maximizes and completely disappears

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm far from a computer expert, other than games I don't know much at all.I was trying to get a file for a game to work so I turned to google for help, It looks like I've gone onto something I shouldn't have.The instruction on the website was to click start and type "Shell32.dll" into the search box.The next instruction was to open it with Notepad, which I did... The box saying something like "always open using this program" was ticked.After spending time googling what I'd just done it seems like that was a huge mistake, I have no idea how to change it back to its original state.So far everything seems to be fine but from what I read on another site the shell32.dll file has something to do
