    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 .

    Following on from this: https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/15983/php-additional-syntax-highlighting In comparing an older styler xml with a recent factory generated one, there was in the old: WordsStyle name="KEYWORDS" In the new: WordsStyle name="WORD" The factory WORD is the go, no problem there, how then did KEYWORDS ever get in there, might it have been a ghostly echo from wayback?

    Does NPPM_GETCURRENTVIEW supersede NPPM_GETCURRENTSCINTILLA with a simpler API (the older message being retained for compatibility), or are there cases where these two might not yield the same result? If they are different, what is the distinction between them? Looking at the code (here and here), they test different things, even though it seems like those two tests would be expected to yield the same result. Likewise, the descriptions don’t use exactly the same words (“Retrieves the current Scintilla view” vs “Retrieves the current used view”), though they sound like they mean the same thing.
