How is that related to "Notepad"? I guess, it is not related...

It's about the same - low - level as the question... :-)

My vote of #1: this is not a solution. This is just telling the person asking the question to eff-off.

You are right, but at the very same time (in this case) this is also a full answer...

I don't think you can argue that. It is a comment and not an answer in the technical sense.

But I have no technical sense...
