Basically, a week ago in spanish class I was bored and copy and pasted text over and over again until I had 1 billion characters, the final past of ~650 million chars took about 10 minutes. I now am unable to open or use notepad without it crashing. I’ve deleted the txt file, but it is still open in a windows 11 notepad tab. When I attempt to edit a txt file, notepad opens, instantly goes unresponsive, and then crashes. Any advice?
