Recently I had my HD go bad and had to replace it. After everything was back, I found that I have lost the ability to edit in notepad offline. I always used notepad to do the little tweeks on pages, but now I have to load the pages into my editor for even the smallest edit. I have IE7 or 8, can't remember, FF is my default. Neither will allow any editing through notepad. Does anyone know if there is a setting that I have missed?
