I doubt that's the case. There's no call against them and plain-text
is too incredibly useful --even for Windows-- that getting rid of them

But Microsoft deprecated Wordpad a few years back and it left a gap
between a full-fledged word-processor and a plain-text editor. Rather
than bring back Wordpad, they've decided to merge its functionality
into Notepad. Microsoft is on sort of a thing where they're very
boastful now about how they are updating all these ancient apps that
haven't been updated in decades. Plus, since they're trying to wedge
their Copilot AI into every app, Notepad was due a revamp anyway.
