10. Bush Hid The Facts
This is very simple but the most popular Notepad trick. To use this notepad trick, follow these steps:

Open Notepad
Type BUSH HID THE FACTS
Save that file
Open it again & see. Amazing?
Alternatively, you can use this app can break.


What happens?

You might have seen that reopening the file will get show you some unicode characters instead of what you typed (Bush hid the facts or this app can break).

Why this happens?

Both the patterns have characters string of length 4-3-3-5 which seems to cause bug in Windows PC. So, this trick works ?

You know you can stop yourself from being logged and tracked.
