Microsoft is killing WordPad in Windows after 28 years
(www.bleepingcomputer.com)
oh no, anyway
It was lighter than word or libre and had formatting, unlike simple word editors like notepad++. Bummer to see it go but surely there is (or will be) an alternative

I used to use WordPad a lot, I'd just press Win+R and enter "write"...
Now I get by with Libreoffice.
I honestly didn't even know it was still around. The last time I opened it was... Windows 7, I think?
