What is the point of Windows having the word processor program called "WordPad"?
05/05/12 05:21 AM


What is the point of Windows having the word processor program called "WordPad"? Since Windows 95, it has always been included in all Windows versions. But why? What is the point? Notepad is the application that is used by Windows for everything such as text editor, configuration settings, etc. And Microsoft Works or Microsoft Word (or some other word processor program) comes preloaded on nearly every computer... so people use that for their word processing. So why even have WordPad?

I feel bad for WordPad... it get's no action. That's why I try to use and incorporate WordPad into my computer usage.
