Notepads is a fantastic alternative to the default Windows Notepad program, which is unnecessarily bright and hasn't had a new lick of paint in eons.
I would very much like to use this as a replacement, which is easy enough, however one issue I've found is that I can't seem to change the Windows Context Menu's "Edit" command to open a file with Notepads.
In the registry, under Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\text\shell\edit\command, we can see that it opens Notepad.exe and passes the filename as an argument. Changing
%SystemRoot%\system32\NOTEPAD.EXE %1 to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\WindowsApps\19282JackieLiu.Notepads-Beta_echhpq9pdbte8\Notepads.exe %1 doesn't work; as in, Notepads opens, but doesn't open the file. Please could this be made possible?
Many thanks!
