  @Eric-Schmenk,

  The directory referenced does not exist

  Unfortunately N++ doesn’t know any better than to try accessing the non-existent icons. A null pointer dereference would explain the crash.

  Stale or invalid config files are a pretty consistent source of crashes; some recent examples:

  NPP crashes on opening Style Configurator if stylers do not exist NPP crashes on opening a session file Application does not start (severe bug) . . .

  Hello @peterjones and All,

  In your last example, relative to INCREMENT THE COUNTER PER-GROUP INSTEAD OF PER-MATCH, I suppose that we could simplify the final regex from :

  editor.rereplace(r'(?s)^{\h*$.*?^},?\h*$', replace_group)

  to :

  editor.rereplace(r'(?s)^{.+?^},?\h*$', replace_group)

  BR

  The original user appears to have deleted their account.

  Had they stayed, my response would have been that privacy is addressed in the FAQ. And as mentioned there, it is simple enough to sign up for an account with one or more of the OAUTH providers that gives the OAUTH provider no private information, so that the OAUTH provider cannot provide this Community Forum with any private information.

  For future readers: changing the password does nothing, because there is no username/password login available. (The forum software will not allow us to hide that setting)

  @Claudio-Reniè-0 said in italian translation multi linee editing:

  Do you think that the time has come to align the Italian translation from vers. 8.2.1 to 8.4.4?
  I have updated my personal file and if you are interested …?

  As @Alan-Kilborn told the user last year, we cannot change anything in Notepad++ – including the translation files – from the Forum. You need to read the FAQ he linked, which will explain where to go to create an official “issue” with the developers.

  However, if I’ve understood the translation guidelines correctly, it’s generally considered polite to ask the previous translator (their info is in the translation file) whether they were going to continue to support the translation, or whether they don’t mind if you make a submission.

  @Malfeasant-Platypus
  You make a statement but you supply absolutely nothing to back it up. Firstly, providing the version you are using would be very helpful. Suggest read this post and then supply the info requested.

  I will hoever go out on a limb here, in suggesting you are possibly using the portable installer. If that is the case you need to read this post. Understand that the portable version DOES overwrite everything by default, that is how it was designed. As it appears you don’t want that to occur you either need to back up the XML files first as suggested in that thread, or use the normal installer.

  Also read this post.

  In future requests for help need to have the relevant information otherwise nobody is going to be interested in helping you.

  Terry

  @PeterJones said in SQL Syntax color code:

  I said,

  If you start with a new/empty tab in Notepad++, it will default to being plain-text

  BTW: if you are editing more SQL than any other type of file, you might want to change your default syntax highlighter: The [Settings] > Preferences > New Document has a Default language pulldown; if you change that to SQL, then every new empty file new # (from a File > New or starting a new instance of Notepad++ with no session) will default to SQL instead of normal text.

  I am making new thread.
  i need your help regarding this .
  i request you to reply me on that thread
