How to Get Notepad with Tabs in Windows 11 22H2

[zoran]

 

 

Microsoft recently rolled out (version 11.2212.33.0) for Notepad app for Windows 11 that added support for Tabs. Right now, the same update is available for Windows Insider in Windows 11 Dev channel.

 

With this update, we are introducing support for multiple tabs—a top requested feature from the community—where you will be able to create, manage, and organize multiple files in a single Notepad window! You can also continue to work with files across multiple windows by dragging a tab out into its own window, and a new app setting lets you customize whether files open in new tabs or a new window by default.

 

There are also new keyboard shortcut keys to support managing tabs as well as some improvements to managing unsaved files, like automatically generating the file name/tab title based on content and a refreshed unsaved changes indicator.

 

If you are going to compare the texts on the tabs, you can drag and drop the tabs to the desktop and use them as a separate window, and then drag these tabs again and make them tabs in the notepad.

Along with new keyboard shortcuts for managing tabs, Microsoft automatically generates a tab title based on what you type on a tab. It would look better if the tabs could be colored.

 

In case, you can’t for Microsoft to release the update that brings Tabs in the Notepad app for Windows 11 22H2, then you can update it manually via .msixbundle. Here’s how you can do that:

Before you start following, I would like to tell you that .msixbundle used to update Notepad is obtained from a third-party (reliable source). When you try to download the bundle, you will receive a warning, ignore it and download the setup. I have personally tested this package on my PC.
