You don't have Modern App support as minimum in Compatibility, which probably delete something needed for the new notepad App to work, as removals also remove other components unless protected by Compatibility.22000.978 2.3.8.8945

Firewall shouldn't have anything to do with notepad not working however removing firewall would create more issues then it's worth in my opinionNotepad works for me after removing Firewall. Your problem is unrelated to networking, and t.xml forgets to remove firewallsvc.

I believe there are real problems, but they're hard to track since the posted preset keeps changing in every thread update. And it's time consuming to recreate the exact setup.
Which leaves 2 options, Live removal(maybe) or Disable it.if you remove FW from the image then it never reaches OOBE.
I tested again, completely remove the firewall will lead to notepad failure, remove the touch keyboard (tablet pc) will lead to input method failureI removed On-Screen Keyboard and Accessibility from the image, and then Add a Language -> Chinese Simplified on the live system.

Running OSK drops me back to the Settings app, where the OSK toggle is now missing. Typing works in either language.

UPDATE - WU installed pending updates. The orange dot appeared on my taskbar, and I couldn't type anything.
The only action was to reboot the system, and it worked again. Could the reason be CU is reinstalling the removals?
My OSK is back again (because of CU). I expect if we disable WU, then the system will be stable.
