I found a year old reference to this but no solution. The problem just started a few months ago. When I exit Textpad after closing files I always get: OK to create 'C:\Program Files\Texpad8/estartByRestartManager: (long string of stuff seems related to a registry entry? It is a nuisance to have to ...

Textpad is set to autosave every 5 minutes, but when a forced reboot crashed, it lost a lot of text. One report says it's in the user/appData/Roaming/Helos file, but it is not there. Searching for any bat file finds none. I have had to redo stuff many times, unable to find any autosave/backups. I am ...

I have lots of other non MS programs and all had defaults working except .txt files etc which always had TextPad as default, but lost it and didn't list it as an option just notepad etc and store. But after rebooting the other option came back and able to select Textpad. Solved but odd why Win 10 ...

Used texpad for decades as default for .txt files etc. But with the latest Win 10 update no longer can choose textpad when try and set defaults from the control panel. Only options are Notepad, Wordpad or choose from Store. Textpad not in store and have. Have to open Textpad and open from there ...

Wow, this has been driving me batty also. I've used for a decade plus and didn't recall this issue before. Yes, I want to save every 5 minutes but when I do so or hit Control/S it brings up Explorer in the default directory, not the one that I have already saved once the file in. And as the prior ...

Thanks it worked (default after closing)...

Hmmm the hidden answer in plain sight!

I'd rather just do whole document search once and not go round and round having to remember when its repeated but that is close.... now if could set it as a default option ....

Happy user for many years - minor irritant When doing a search/Find (usually in .txt file) I often go to end of document may add things etc but want to do a search and don't realize not finding something since defaults to "down" and often forget to change to up. Wish there would be an option to ...

Have recently started to get this error with only I tab open in Textpad, no other text program running etc. Win 7 64 bit no recent changes other than latest updates. Textpad 6.2.2 (32 bit) It shows, access problem of file I am working on. I note a few others posting on other forums something similar ...

Am manually removing the line ends (one paragraph symbol) and they range from column or space number 86-94 but varies.

Don't know why they are there to start with.

OOPs looking more closely at the coding in textpad it IS inserting line breaks in the text at the wrong points. I have no idea why all these line breaks with out word wrap and line breaks turned off in config/preferences/ word wrapping option

This has been driving me crazy for years. Sometimes not on all documents done as .txt files in Textpad. when you paste into a discussion forum box like here.... I get very ragged text with words indented not at end of box but all over.... if this makes sense. In config preferences I have Word ...
