I have Windows 7 on a HP laptop. I've downloaded and installed "NoteTab Light" and I want to replace all Notepad docs with NoteTap Light.
In the NoteTab Light "help" files, it reads:
Q. Can I replace Windows Notepad with NoteTab?
A. Yes, as long as you are not running Windows 7 or Vista. If NoteTab is correctly installed, you will find a command called "Replace MS Notepad" under the Help menu. When you choose that command, NoteTab will first rename Notepad by adding the extension ".MS" to the program file. Then, it will copy a special little program called NOTEPAD.STB to the Windows directory and rename it NOTEPAD.EXE. Whenever this program is executed, it launches NoteTab instead of Notepad. If you want to restore MS Notepad after this operation, just use the command "Restore MS Notepad", which is also available under the Help menu.
Note that this feature is currently not available under Windows 7 and Vista. It may also not always work properly under Windows 2000, ME, and XP, due to the Windows File Protection (WFP) monitoring system, which checks for changes to system files. In this case, you should assign text files to NoteTab through the Associations screen in the Options dialog box.
How do I use the Associations screen in the Options dialog box to get this changed?
Thank you
