[Bug] Can't edit and save files inside a compressed file #1322
Comments
I am not sure if OG notepad does something automatically for re-saving a file in archive. Not sure how to achieve this with UWP tho. |
OG Notepad doesn't automatically re-save it, but as you can see on that small picture, it allows this option. I think it has to do with the fact that this program's exe is in a restricted folder (UWP), hence 7-zip can't access it normally and unlock its full potential. Any chance for a UWP-less version perhaps, just to test it out? Thank you. |
Describe the bug
When I try to edit/modify a file that is openable by Notepads, it refuses to properly save the that file INSIDE a compressed file. And on top of that, if I indirectly want to Edit it, it opens as an empty file instead.
To Reproduce
Expected behavior
It should be saved normally inside a compressed file. With default notepad, it works perfectly fine.
Screenshots
Even better, a video!

Also once finished with the edit/modify, the archiver program should prompt the following message: (it happens with regular notepad save)
Desktop (please complete the following information):
Additional context
I got tired of the white theme on notepad, that's why I fell in love with Notepads, although this issue annoys me, please have a look, thank you!
P.S: I think it has to do with the fact that Notepads.exe is located in a hidden/restricted folder by default (Program Files/WindowsApps), compared to Notepad.exe, which is in system32.
