    Is it being replaced with something else preinstalled? What the heck do I tell Windows-using coworkers to use when it doesn’t open a text documents automatically from clients??

    I’ve installed Libreoffice but Linux has spoilt me as Windows needs a damn reboot to use it properly. I can’t log back in (and one of the setups is also a damn server to the other) :/

      I mean, Notepad is still there, and even with its simplicity and other issues (which have gotten a lot better), it’s always been way better for text files than WordPad

        Notepad could be fine sometimes but they often have images in the documents given from our clients (who are often equally not skilled with computers).

      You’re either exaggerating or it’s a problem with LibreOffice.
