1) Many txt files open. I find this quite frustrating. I have no idea which is the most current edit.
1-4) I am able to fix all my issues by doing this:
a) Select the Notepad.exe with Right mouse, choose App settings, Reset the App
b) Run Notepad.exe, select the Settings wheel upper right, choose Opening files-Open in a new window, choose When Notepad starts-Open in a new window.
