Thanks to a leaked screenshot, tabs are coming to Notepad, but could this cheapen the simplicity of the app?
If you’ve been waiting for tabs to arrive in Notepad, similar to File Explorer in a recent Windows 11 update, then you’re in luck.
According to Windows Latest (opens in new tab), Microsoft was working on this back in 2019 for Windows 10, but was shelved. However, with tabs in File Explorer already helping plenty of users and their workflow, mine included, it makes sense to have this feature in Notepad as well.
It may arrive in the next ‘Moment’ update, which is Microsoft’s next attempt at rolling out smaller improvements to Windows 11 every few months, before the major update at the end of the year.
