    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 .

    Hello, All, I tried to do an advanced search, on our Node BB site, clicking first on the magnifier icon, on the right, then clicking on the double gears icon => [image: 1790081957749-5212b44c-140f-4713-b7f5-2e0c52f29ea2-image.jpeg] As I just wanted to get all the posts written by a specific user, I clicked on the Posted by zone and typed in its username However, I just got the message no users found!. Some time ago, even typing a single letter immediately showed a list of users , whose username began with that letter and sorted by decreasing number of written posts. And I suppose that the problem is identical with the Tags choice. However, note that the Categories and Sort choices seem to work correctly. Has anyone else noticed this problem ? Best Regards, guy038

    @andrecool-68 said: All the mark of the web looks okay, and all the files are in the right place. I am not sure why it’s not working for you. With a similar installation, but 64-bit, I have no problems with Plugins Admin Admin mode: ON Can you try running not as administrator. That can sometimes mess up permissions, so maybe for some strange reason, your Admin has been denied privilege on one or more of the DLL or EXE files mentioned? installing the 64-bit 8.9.8 on that machine, instead of 32-bit, and see if it behaves the same? confirm that you don’t have this problem with v8.9.7 on the same setup First few experiments on my end: 8.9.8-64bit, non-Admin: my daily driver, and I use Plugins Admin frequently: [image: 1789590084696-dc568790-b6ce-4a3c-aaaa-422d9f5937c8-image.jpeg] 8.9.8-64bit, Admin: [image: 1789589967329-aeeef823-c099-463b-b884-00b51add713b-image.jpeg] 8.9.8-32bit, Not Admin: [image: 1789589989950-e94d8be8-7ade-4530-8536-01033d4d4e35-image.jpeg] 8.9.8-32bit, Admin: [image: 1789590011468-5247e7c8-2097-41fe-ad98-0ed554c34815-image.jpeg] So, so far, on my Win 11 machine, I cannot replicate with 64-bit or 32-bit, admin or no, with the portable (or the installed, for 8.9.8-64) Update Virtual Win 10 machine: Portable 32-bit: Plugins Admin is there, whether normal run or Admin Portable 64-bit: Plugins Admin is there, whether normal run or Admin Installed 64-bit: Plugins Admin is there, whether normal run or Admin Installed 32-bit: Plugins Admin is there, whether normal run or Admin [image: 1789591116798-5959e708-0015-4e87-8f3a-50f4928df7b7-image.jpeg]Notepad++ v8.9.8 (32-bit) Build time: Aug 23 2026 - 17:20:01 Scintilla/Lexilla included: 5.6.6/5.5.3 Boost Regex included: 1_90 pugixml included: 1.16 nlohmann JSON included: 3.12.0 Path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\notepad++.exe Command Line: Admin mode: ON Local Conf mode: OFF Cloud Config: OFF WinGUp: present disableNppAutoUpdate.xml: absent Periodic Backup: ON Placeholders: OFF Scintilla Rendering Mode: SC_TECHNOLOGY_DIRECTWRITE (1) Multi-instance Mode: monoInst asNotepad: OFF File Status Auto-Detection: cdEnabledNew (for current file/tab only) Dark Mode: OFF Display Info: primary monitor: 1024x666, scaling 100% visible monitors count: 1 installed Display Class adapters: 0000: Description - VirtualBox Graphics Adapter (WDDM) 0000: DriverVersion - 7.1.8.18469 OS Name: Windows 10 Home (64-bit) OS Version: 22H2 OS Build: 19045.5854 Current ANSI codepage: 1252 Plugins: mimeTools (3.1) NppConverter (4.7) NppExport (0.4) I tried to get as close to your setup as I possibly can, and I still cannot replicate your problem.

    Or do you specifically want the search process to bookmark lines, but otherwise think of bookmarks and marked text as independent things? I make use of bookmarks because they are saved in sessions. Marks and changed line indicators are not. I mark some things with bookmarks, turn mark with bookmarks off, clear marks, do stuff … mark some other things with bookmarks, save session. Then I can use bookmarks later to review the areas I have been looking at.
