Microsoft Notepad is a default text writing tool in Windows Operating System. Though it is a helpful app, people don't give much importance to it if they have Microsoft Office installed on their PCs.

Sooner I found out that there was no such option. Now I learned the bitter truth there is no direct reset option in notepad. The only way to reset the Microsoft note

This automatic Private IP address is in the range 169.254.0.1 to 169.254.255.254. APIPA = Automatic Private IP Addressing Problems With APIPA Addressing Since APIPA (169.254.X.X) is a private IP address, your computer will not communicate to any other devices with a valid IP address provided by a DHCP server. In other words, your computer has no connection to a real network. A Device with a 169 IP Address range can only communicate with another APIPA device. To communicate with other devices, you must change the 169.254.X.X I
