Microsoft Notepad, a classic app that’s been around since 1985, has just entered the AI era with an exciting new feature called Rewrite. Aimed at transforming basic text editing into a smarter, more versatile experience, Rewrite lets users fine-tune their text effortlessly with AI assistance. From rephrasing sentences to adjusting tone and modifying content length, Notepad now offers much more than simple note-taking.

How Rewrite Works

Using Rewrite is straightforward: just highlight the text, right-click, and select Rewrite from the menu. A dialogue box will appear, allowing you to choose specific modifications, like making the text longer, shorter, or more concise. This cloud-based service then generates three different rewritten versions of the selected text, giving users plenty of options to suit their needs. Simply pick the one that best fits, and it instantly replaces the original text.

A Modern Twist on a Classic Tool

Notepad’s Rewrite feature follows Microsoft’s recent additions of spellcheck and autocorrect to the app, marking another leap toward a more modern Notepad experience. Now, Notepad can serve as a versatile writing assistant—ideal for users who want to polish up quick notes, emails, or ideas without switching apps.

With Rewrite, Notepad is shaping up to be a go-to tool for users looking for a simple yet powerful way to create and edit text, blending the ease of AI with the comfort of a familiar app
