Notepad.exe, pre-windows 11. Now it's something else entirely but still uses the name :(
Nah it was eternally annoying that it didn't support Unix line endings. Also there are clearly a ton of basic features that people want from lightweight text editors.
Notepad did what it needed to do, but it could be improved in a lot of ways
Notepad in Windows 7 occasionally did some weird shit.
I kinda love snipping tool.
