Operating System: Windows 11 (24H2) Summary of the problem: Microsoft removed winword from Windows 11, so there is now no lightweight viewer for viewing the RTF release notes file with MCEBuddy. Users now need to load up a full-featured word processor application like Microsoft Word or Google Docs…

Fair enough, the installer is restricted to using .rtf files so that will have to remain (for now) but added a html version of the release notes along with the build files.

RTF release notes no longer viewable in Windows11 (winword was removed)

I just did a test with a clean install of Windows 11 and it’s working fine. It’s displaying the RTF release notes
