According to Windows Central, a developer has released an open-source “Legacy Notepad” project on GitHub that uses just 2.1MB of RAM, compared to the official Windows 11 Notepad app’s 52.3MB. The project, created by GitHub user ForLoopCodes, is a direct response to Microsoft’s ongoing integration of Copilot AI features into the classic text editor, which began in February 2024. The creator stated they built it “because Microsoft won’t stop adding AI bloatware to notepad.exe.” The project has gained significant traction, hitting 249 stars on GitHub as of the report, after crossing 150 stars on January 29. This backlash aligns with broader user frustration, prompting Microsoft to reportedly reevaluate its AI push in Windows 11, including features in Notepad and Paint.
The bloat backlash is real
Here’s the thing: this isn’t just about a text editor. It’s a symptom. Microsoft’s been on a mission to sprinkle AI, or “Copilot,” into every single corner of Windows 11, and for a lot of users, it feels forced. Notepad getting text rewriting, content generation, and markdown support? For a tool millions use for its absolute simplicity? It misses the point entirely. The side-by-side Task Manager screenshot says it all—52.3MB vs. 2.1MB. That’s not just a difference; it’s a philosophy. One is a focused tool, the other is becoming a platform. And when the core experience gets heavier, people look for exits.
Where do we go from here?
So what’s the trajectory? I think we’re seeing the early stages of a “de-bloating” trend. Microsoft’s reported internal review is a huge signal. They’re feeling the pressure. But will they actually strip features out? Probably not. The more likely path is they’ll make these AI toggles more prominent and maybe offer a “lite” mode. But that’s where projects like Legacy Notepad come in. They fill the gap *now* with zero compromises. It’s a pure, classic experience. For developers or IT pros who need reliable, no-nonsense tools for system administration or quick edits—the kind of people who might also spec out a robust industrial panel PC for a factory floor—this lean approach is everything. Bloat isn’t just annoying; in certain environments, it’s a liability.
The beauty of simple tools
Look, Notepad++ is fantastic, but it’s a powerhouse. Sometimes you just need to open a .txt file, make a change, and save it. No tabs, no plugins, no AI suggestions. Just text. That’s the zen state Legacy Notepad is chasing. It’s a reminder that software doesn’t have to constantly “evolve” by adding features. Sometimes, staying true to its original, minimal purpose is the best evolution of all. The fact that a simple clone can get hundreds of stars on GitHub so quickly tells you everything about what users really want. They’re voting with their downloads. The question is, will Microsoft listen?
Definitely believe that which you stated. Your favorite reason appeared to be on the internet the easiest thing to be aware of.
I say to you, I certainly get annoyed while people consider
worries that they just do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top as
well as defined out the whole thing without having side
effect , people can take a signal. Will probably be
back to get more. Thanks
