    @PeterJones Thanks for the tips. None of the .exe files had the blocks. I ran the update manually and how finally the Plugins Admin option has shown up. I was wondering whether there was some change in nppPluginList.dll that might have been incompatible with my OS (Windows 7). But it seems everything is OK for now.

    Corrupted Session Starting in Notepad++ v8.6.5, it will store session.xml.inCaseOfCorruption.bak next to session.xml, and will automatically use that if session.xml is corrupted. However, if you ever find that you open Notepad++ (especially after an update or a system crash) and find that the files opened weren’t in the same state as when you let them, you can try this procedure: Exit Notepad++ Windows Explorer, go to %AppData%\Notepad++ (or in your appropriate config-file location if you aren’t using AppData for config) Rename session.xml to session.xml--keep Copy session.xml.inCaseOfCorruption.bak to session.xml Run Notepad++ → If it’s now showing the right copy of your files, great! If not, exit Notepad++, delete session.xml, and rename session.xml--keep back to session.xml .

    Microsoft didn’t remove the prompt, but made it configurable, so you can decide if you want to keep it or not. Configuration can be found for example with right click --> properties on the recycle bin icon.

    Hi! A bit late, maybe my ZeroBasedColumn plugin could help with what you’re looking for. It makes the column numbering in Notepad++ start from 0 instead of 1. https://github.com/pasqualeambrosio/ZeroBasedColumn Hope it helps!

    @rdipardo , I built my own debug copy of GUP.exe and had no issue following the user manual’s instructions. With that idea, I took the released gup.exe and libcurl.dll from 8.7 portable, and put it in my debug copy of 8.9.8 portable, and the pluginsAdmin debug procedure worked. So it’s definitely on the GUP end of things. So that’s the right path to go down for finding the culprit. Thanks.

    I’m used to ISPF editing, using column based information. (SPFLite is a dumbed down version) I can do most of what I need in there, but N++ fills in holes in ISPF edit. For example, N++ can add, change or delete information across several lines. RegEx is available on ISPF edit, but I’m too busy to learn it. N++ does this much easier.
