    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 .

    @myfancytextgenerator said: One small caveat worth keeping in mind: this covers the default language of new documents, not the file-type list in the Save As dialogue — the langs.xml tweak described earlier in this thread is still the way to get a dedicated .md entry there. Sorry… but this is just not true. It is implemented even longer, since Aug 2024, than the latest update. See Issue #11096 and PR #15490

    @Screen-White said: I also contribute to that resource We do not allow links to fancy text generators here: every topic that has any becomes a honeypot for more such links, getting low quality posts that pretend to be responses but are actually just spam advertising. If you have something meaningful to say about Notepad++, feel free. But if you post another link to your fancy text generator website(s), you will be banned for spamming.
