Recuperar documentos de WordPad no guardados/eliminados en Windows 10

Overview WordPad

WordPad is a default program when we install Windows operating system on our computer, so it’s free to use. Basically, it’s a rich text editor that can help users create, edit, format, print, and save documents simply. Moreover, WordPad also provides more features when compared to Notepad:

• WordPad lets users make formatting changes such as font styles and sizes.
• WordPad is compatible with both .rtf and .txt formats. However, Notepad majorly stores files in the .txt format.
