I saved a file the other day, an internet page, and before I knew it I realised I had saved it in Wordpad... Being not very computer savvy, I now can't find it. Where is Wordpad in Window XP?
Be careful who you open up to. Today it's ears, tomorrow it's mouth.

    start search wordpad should find it.., or start, run, wordpad

    if you do start search for files and folder, and tick date, change the number of days to when you did it, it may help find the file you saved..
    Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:

  • Should save by default from Wordpad into My Documents as a Rich Text File.

    Try a wildcard search for *.rtf

    :cool:

    Should be in Programs/Accessories, although if it's in wordpad format double-clicking should start it in Wordpad?
