in fact it does, it just has another name.


This is more interesting. One could equally argue that the original file
does not exist, but another file with the same content but a different
name does exist. Both statements could be considered true, depending on
how you think of things. You clearly think differently from Notepad++,
but that doesn't make Notepad++ wrong.
