    Simply no. They modernized it in Windows 11 and made it do the expensive mica stuff have fonts and tabs and some awful "restore session" feature

  N.B. Notepad3 (originally Flo’s notepad2) is a great drop-in replacement for notepad.exe (and even has an install option to do exactly that, so everything opens with it even if other programs call it). I install it on every Win system I have to manage. Not as big as Notepad++, but has syntax highlighting, line numbers and supports LF file endings.

    Notepad has supported LF for at least 7-8 years
