# Classic Notepad on Windows 11
The new Notepad brings a couple of avesome functions such as
- Autosave
- Dark mode
- Multitab support
But it has a very strong disadvantage
- Very very very slow, slower than the old classic Notepad
The old notepad is part of the Windows installations now so easy to switch back to it.
Open the settings app, apps, advanced, app exec aliases, turn off notepad.
Open the regedit and go to `HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\txtfilelegacy\shell\open\command`.
Set the default to `c:\windows\system32\notepad.exe "%1"`.
Done, suggested a relogin, enjoy.
