Replace Notepad (post update)

Updated batch file in post Replace Notepad (Windows XP/2000 and later) post - fixed issue when another copy of notepad.exe was in other locations that were used by Windows File Protection (service pack folder and C:\I386 folder). This replaces the Windows notepad with a notepad alternative (single exe file only, not one that comes with other files) of your choice (i.e. Notepad2 ).
