Even if you get it from D2D as a download and install it into the default install location(likely somwhere in Program Files) then you will not get write permissions with any editor. It is Windows that is protecting against file tampering in that Program Files folder.

Not sure what WP means, as Word Perfect is long gone afaik. NP means notepad I presume. You would have to run any editor as an administrator. But then Windows directs My Documents to that of the administrator, and not your personal account.
