    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 .

    Hi, @mpheath and All, Ah… I understand. Thus, I’ve decided to conduct a second round of tests. This time : The files New_LF_ANSI.txt and New_CRLF_UTF-8.txt were copied from ORG_LF_ANSI.txt as Regex_LF_ANSI.txt and Regex_CRLF_UTF-8.txt The files Lua_LF_ANSI.txt and Lua_CRLF_UTF-8.txt were copied from ORG_LF_ANSI.txt as Lua_2_LF_ANSI.txt and Lua_2_CRLF_UTF-8.txt Then, I stopped and restarted N++ : thus, no more change history feature ! Finally, regarding these new created files : I ran the regex replacement, followed by a Trim trailing Space operation, on files Regex_LF_ANSI.txt and Regex_CRLF_UTF-8.txt I ran your Lua script on files Lua_2_LF_ANSI.txt and Lua_2_CRLF_UTF-8.txt So, these four files showed an orange change history color. As you can see on the screenshots, the regex process acted on all lines, but some empty line endings, and your lua script just acted on lines which need wrapping ! Regex process : [image: 1793185055863-2227cacc-b95f-4715-9de6-41295fb2754d-image.jpeg] Lua process : [image: 1793185088657-7b25d2ab-cc71-4e82-9fe3-dc3c4f3cd4fa-image.jpeg] However, the comparisons between the regex process and the Lua process shows the same number of differences ( 3 for ANSI files and 5 for UTF-8 files ) Between ANSI files : [image: 1793185122897-7299ef9e-d2d0-46f5-9d1c-a9a4a69473a4-image.jpeg] [image: 1793185134970-7e206be6-1745-46b2-9751-5fdd94e5a2a6-image.jpeg] Between UTF-8 files [image: 1793185153982-bd94b573-9462-4640-99f2-ed0ecbec9ced-image.jpeg] [image: 1793185170805-785051c7-9e8b-476c-8024-9cb249e18ded-image.jpeg] Best Regards, guy038

    @Adam-Harrington , First you can search your Registry file for that phrase E:\Portables\Notepad++.exe %1 or just notepad++ and look for the key/value pairs you find and change them to the new location of your Notepad++ directory. Or search this forum and the FAQ’s list for this information. I searched mine and found it with just “notepad++”

    Hello, @thomas-knoefel and All, Indeed, changing the line : LoadThreads="auto" into this one : LoadThreads=0 within the MultiReplace.ini file, the same list of files were found in 2 m ( instead of 1 m 13 s ) Thus, I decided of an experiment, changing, on purpose, the LoadThreads line to : LoadThreads=8 After restarting my computer and doing the test, the execution time was, this time, 1 m 28 s. However, verifying within the MultiReplace.ini file, I saw the line : LoadThreads="0" Is this the expected behavior, with the number 0 as a string ? Best Regards, guy038
