Is there any way I can change it to on click of edit option open it with notepad or Dreamweaver.

Answer 1

Open Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options > Programs > change the HTML editor from Word to something else.

OR

Change the Default registry key under to the path of the program. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Default HTML Editor\shell\edit\command

E.g.

"C:\Program Files\TextPad 5\TextPad.exe" -s "%1"
