So when I start my pc the first time I open any txt file it opens all the recent txt files I have opened like from the day before then after I close them all and try to open again any txt file it opens the txt file and the most recent txt file also. I noticed this bug after i updated my windows 11 I don't know if that is the problem just saying, any advice is welcome.
Edit : (sorry forgot to mention that i use the default Microsoft notepad)

Have you already checked the settings in notepad? If not please follow the steps below.
-Open Notepad.
-Click on the "File" menu.
-Select "Options" or "Settings" (depending on your Windows version).
-In the "Preferences" or "Startup" tab, look for an option related to session or file restoration.
-Disable or uncheck the option that says something like "Restore previous session" or "Reopen files from the last session."
If you have any additional questions please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks
as i have replied to others about how to do this i didnt need you to tell how me to do this . it looks like you just cc`d every one in you email. no matter i have allredy helped other privately. but its reasurring to know that all emails and replies are read and answered...keep the good work up
on windows 11 Notepad has not such an option. When you open the "File" window, "Options" or "Settings" are not present
Yeah its so stupid, I thought I had a virus since it just started happening out of nowhere, took me a while to realize that it was opening the previous text file, since I deal with a lot of them. Windows was fine the way it was many years ago, everything **snip** is just making it worse.
OH MY GOD !!! Thank you I thought I had a freakin virus or something thank you so much !
