What is wordpad.exe?

WordPad is a basic word processor that is included with almost all versions of Microsoft Windows. It is more advanced than Notepad but simpler than Microsoft Word. WordPad can format and print text, but lacks intermediate features such as a spell checker, thesaurus, and support for tables.
