I can confirm it’s not. One cool feature Windows does have is Windows sandbox, which lets you instantly start a blank Windows VM with no persistence. I was playing around with it yesterday and discovered it doesn’t include notepad in the guest OS!
Recently revived my old gaming PC, decided to put Bazzite on it. Was a bit surprised to see that sudoedit had a menubar and everything, used to it being vim or something. Got even more surprised when I found out it was made by fucking Microsoft. Yuck.

I’ll bet the hypervisor for that VM is notepad based /j
still kinda pissed they got rid of edit.com after win7…
They brought it back (well, a modern version) in Win 11.
It’s available for Linux too!
