WordPad

[Jason76]

It's the free thing that comes with Microsoft. Does anyone use it? What are the pros and cons?

I use notepad++ that is free to downlad and has more better options

 

[Jason76]

The .rtf extension (the native WordPad one) often cannot be uploaded (also not on Forum Promotion).

Wordpad is alright but doesn't have the option like they all do you know. Not like the paid version.

But mostly I use notepad++ to do most of my typing on and save or print, also use it to code with.

I use Microsoft Word.

 

[Jason76]

I like it. No need for anything fancy.

I still use it from time to time. I'd say it's a program that's between Notepad and Word 🙂

WordPad is good but I prefer Notepad. If you need something more than Notepad though, WordPad is a good one. It's more rich in features.

You the man! Same here. It's good isn't it?

Notepad is easier for me as well as most users, but I did use wordpad when i didnt have microsoft word.

 

[Jerlene]

haha Same here. If I needed to write an ebook or something I would use WordPad because I didn't have Office.

Google is your friend. Or since you like Wikipedia, here you go: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WordPad

WordPad is just another text editor by Microsoft. According to Wikipedia, it has more features than Notepad.

WordPad is probably best for people who don't want to pay for or stand something like MS-Word
Notepad is best if you want to write a small .txt file(Such as README.txt) or use it in Youtube(Just don't)
Notepad++ is just Notepad but better for programming and it can be used as a normal text editor
MS-Word is primarily for businesses, reports, offices and College and University students alike

Notepad++

Free, Used to using it, Not basic as Notepad as it has more options, And allot more helpful when coding

I use Libre Office. I haven't used Wordpad in a long, long time. I like to be able to do more.

But you could use the more functional Google Docs lol.

The up-to-date version of WordPad is reasonable for a free piece of software.

However, you could also just use Google Docs, or WPS Writer. The latter is very similar to Microsoft Office, but without the stupidly high cost.
