change the default editor for "Edit this script"

[tatagi]

windows builtin notepad is the default editor now and I want to change it to something else.

I found somewhere that I can mess around with regedit and edit the value for my liking

but problem is the regedit path they referred does not exist

I guess this is because my autohotkey is portable(zip compressed) version


in this case, what do I do to get it done?

You can try Example #2 from here: https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/commands/Edit.htm#ExDefaultEditor

If the above linked info didn't work in helping to resolve this (as it didn't for me), here's a link to the solution that did work for me.
