Notepad++.
That is all.
I don’t want to get into a text editor war - because these are all good options - but it’s definitely also worth giving the “Kate” editor from KDE a go, it’s available as a native Windows app from the MS store and everything:

I personally find it considerably nicer to use than Notepad++, and it means I don’t have to give up 25 years of muscle memory for keyboard shortcuts when I have to switch to a windows machine.
Also some crazy how, it uses less RAM than Notepad‽ (With no files open, 61 vs 71MB) Not sure what Microsoft are up to, but it’s definitely something strange.
I switched to Linux recently, you can too. It’s easy and works well now. No more of this bullshit from Microsoft.
Can I build any custom PC and I have it run Linux ?
What if I need to have Adobe Pro and MS Word full versions for work ?
I would build it with AMD or Intel components only personally, because Nvidia still relies on a closed-source driver.
Adobe and Word will not work on Linux.
