A Powershell Script that replaces notepad with notepad++ for the default editor.
- Download and install Notepad++.
- Open a PowerShell console in Administrator mode. You can find the PowerShell console by clicking on the start button and typing powershell then ctrl-shift-enter.
- From within the console, navigate to the folder containing the script.
- Make sure your computer can run scripts by setting a proper Execution Policy. You'll need to briefly read up on execution policys on MS TechNet. I recommend RemoteSigned.
- Lastly, run the script!
You can use the same instructions to undo the install with the undo script.!
