Secure Notepad

notepad clone with enhanced privacy

Our Rating: (Good)

Secure Notepad is a Notepad replacement that is (almost) identical to the original, but offers several additional security features. In addition to saving files with the standard .txt extension, you can choose the .etxt format, which allows you to encrypt your file with a password and additional key file. Furthermore, the program includes a handy fade-out feature that automatically fades the content of a text file to plain white if the Notepad window is not active.
