If I was to search for a word in notepad it wouldn't find a match if there was a capital letter, for example in the notepad there this world "Mustang" if I was to search for "mustang" it says couldn't find anything.

If there a way I can get it to ignore the capital vs small letters?

Yes, in the search bar click the 'more options' icon: 1702074841348.png

Here you can untick 'Match case'. (Wrap around means it will continue searching from the top if it gets to the bottom without finding anything.)
