How to Stop Notepad from Opening Previous Files on Windows 11

One of the most useful additions to Windows 11’s Notepad is automatically saving the progress as you type. This means that even if you close the Notepad app accidentally, your text will still be available for editing the next time you open the app.

The feature is very useful and greatly reduces data loss but can irritate many users. The tabbed interface and the note-saving ability make the entire interface a mess. Sometimes, you may also want to prevent Notepad from opening the last file or note.

The option to stop Notepad from opening previous files on Windows 11 is hidden deep under the Notepad Settings itself; hence, no third-party tool is needed.

1. Click on the Windows 11 Search and type in Notepad. Next, open the Notepad app from the list of best match results.

2. When the Notepad app opens, click on the Settings gear icon at the Notepad’s toolbar.

3. On the Notepad settings, scroll down to the When Notepad Starts section and expand it.

4. Now, you will find two options – Open content from the previous sessions or open a new window.

5. If you don’t want Notepad to open your previous files, select the Open a new Window option.

Now, close the Notepad application and open it again. The next time Notepad will open, it will start with a blank ‘Untitled’ file. You won’t see Notepad restoring your previous files.
