Replaced Notepad by Accident

Hi! I accidently set the program ConTEXT to replace Notepad. I would like to set it back to Notepad because I prefer it but I can't figure out how! When I search for "Notepad" it just gives me the icon for ConTEXT under the name Notepad and when I click it it opens up ConTEXT. Does anyone know how I can get Notepad back? Thank you!

Welcome to the forum,

Notepad is located in C:\Windows , scroll down and you'll see notepad.exe.

Tried that, Notepad just appears to have been completely overridden by ConTEXT :/
See the problem?

I see what it did, you need to rename it from notepad.exe.bak to notepad.exe.

Thanks that did it!
