Multiple people have mentioned it, and you're not responding to it: There is WordPad, separate from Notepad, that seems to be what you're looking for.

Wordpad is a completely different thing, it’s a basic word processor. I’d be quite happy with a slightly better text editor, though as I pointed out Notepad has improved recently and isn’t far off a reasonable set of basic features.

Have you ever used WordPad? WordPad is a lightweight "word processor" not a text editor. It is not really an option.
