I have used PSPad for years and feel that it is a great program. However...
Starting a short while ago, it would regularly crash. I have no reason to believe that the issue is with PSPad, so yesterday, I ran MS Security Essentials – it found a few meaningless items and I deleted them. I also ran chkdsk and sfc /scannow and they found nothing. I also uninstalled PSPad, removed everything PSPad-related from my machine, downloaded the latest version of PSPad, installed it, and rebooted. (Also note that months ago, I removed a number of MS updates that are known to be problematic.) The problem has not fully gone away. When I exit PSPad, I usually get a window that says “PSPad has stopped working”. Something else, and this just since the re installation: I opened a text file with long lines and they did not seem to be wrapping properly, even though word-wrap is enabled. I checked Settings -> Editor (part 2) -> Position of right edge is set to 80, but the wrapping happens based on the width of the window. What the heck? -- <https://forum.pspad.com/read.php?2,77239,77239> PSPad freeware editor https://www.pspad.com
