When trying to look at the source code of a website, I get an error message
C:\windows\system32\notepad.exe doe not exist. I have checked and Notepad is
there. I copied Notepad to a zip drive and with the zip drive plugged in I
can view source code with no problems. How can I view code without doing
this? What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Hi,
Do you have a shortcut to Notepad on the desktop? If so rename the shortcut
to something other than Notepad.

Also, probably won't help, but can't hurt... clear the Temporary Internet
Files

Hope this helps,

This is usually fixed by emptying the Temporary Internet Files.

Also, if you have a shortcut to Notepad on your desktop rename it to Npad.
