Looking for a free text editor on Windows that doesn’t suck?  Look no further than Notepad++.  Notepad++ is a fantastic light-weight text editor that I’ve been using for a few years now.  It’s very easy to use and has syntax highlighting for nearly 50 languages.  I use it to edit any text that doesn’t need to be compiled by Visual Studio .  It also integrates into Windows Explorer so you can open files with Notepad++ via the context menu.

Finally, Notepad++ has a plugin architecture so if it doesn’t already have something you need, odds are that someone wrote a plugin to do it. You can find a list of Notepad++ plugins here.
