Solved How to remove tabs from the new notepad?

Go to Settings page in Notepad and click on "Opening files", then select the option "Open in a new window". Now when you click simultaneously on the two text files, they'll open up in separate windows.

When I double-click either the notepad.exe that's in Windows or the notepad.exe that's in Windows\System32, it opens the new Notepad, not the classic one. Do I have to make Edwin's registry changes (page 1 of this thread) to get the old one to work, or do I need to unistall Notepad in Programs and Features to access the old version? Something else?

I did both, uninstalling first. Best to keep the new one out the way. And the registry change is to remove the restriction MS placed on you accessing the old one with file associations.
