    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 .

    @rdipardo , I got a statement of sorts in regard to this request, specifically, this comment: Using AI to create a PR for an open source project - is it a good thing or a bad thing? I have no judgement on that. For me, the only criterion that matters is whether the merged code will be maintainable in the future. On this point, I have to say that AI-generated PRs (I can usually tell during code review), often do not meet the critera in their current state - but many human devs don’t either.

    @guy038 said: Do you have an explanation ? and I wrote: I think it has to be a bug It is, and it’s a fairly simple error in my logic. If a match ends at the end of the file (or the end of a selection or a span of marked text, if you’re searching within one of those), the search ends (or moves on to the next selection or span of marked text) without checking whether the expression can match null there. It will be fixed in the next release. Why adding |\z causes such strange behavior — in ICU even leading to new matches in the middle of the file — as yet I have no clue. The code supporting ICU search has the same logic error as the Regex search does, but there’s an additional oddity which seems to be built into ICU’s regular expression search. As best I can tell, it treats the circumflex (^) differently when it is the first element of the only alternative and in all other contexts. As an example, see the difference between marking ^\n (which matches nothing in Guy’s test text) and ^\n|Q (which matches the line feed at the end of each of the first nine lines). Note: I suggested using Mark to show this because Scintilla will not allow a selection to encompass only part of a line ending, so it’s less clear what is happening with Select or stepwise Find commands. The Search++ results list doesn’t have the option to show line endings — perhaps it should! — so Find All is also unclear. I’m not sure if this is expected behavior. ICU describes the circumflex as “Match at the beginning of a line” but, as far as I can find, says nothing about it behaving differently in different positions or expressions.
