Another thing,
(Is this a known issue?) the popup “suggest” list in the editor topic field (Chrome) doesn’t respond on any clicks, so without doing a full search, it’s a bit awkward to get to the suggested topic.
Since Microsoft ended mainstream support for Windows 7 in January 2015, this issue won’t be fixed in Notepad++ installer.
However, you can fix manually if you use Notepad++ x64 under Windows 7:
The registry values had to be updated. I actually did the inverse of Gusgus01's referenced issue above since I have x64 version installed:
Pop open regedit > search for ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\notepad++.exe" and replace with the updated x64 directory "C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe."
Now the 64bit Notepad++ programs appears in "Open With" > "Choose a default program" > "Recommended Programs."

@Ekopalypse Awesome! I can reproduce it steadily now, though I still have no idea for the cause of bug from code.
BTW could you share your secret to find how to reproduce that?
Thank you @guy038 for your effort!

Personally I haven’t used DoxyIt in years. I wouldnt say it’s not supported, just my interest is quite lacking.
In light of recent circumstances I find myself with copious amounts of free time currently, so I will make it a point to take a look at your PR soon.

Was there a question someplace? Or were you offering a feature suggestion? Or were you just showing the way you tweaked the HTML language keywords in your langs.xml and were suggesting that other people do the same?

I came across this today also. Very annoying to have exe and dll files not digitally signed. It really puts some doubt into the integrity of the files of the assembly.
Please digitally sign on next release please.

I had noticed that it is possible to read FAQs and threads without being logged in. And that’s not what I commented about either.
But occasionally a newbie wants to post a question to the combined knowledge of a Forum, simply because he’s stuck, and cannot seem to find an answer.
As the first thread I stumbled upon when looking how to log in, was the complaint by @bendover22 which never got a reply, it’s easy to conclude for new visitors that no-one bothers, as all members already know the drill.
It’s not more explained that the sole admin has more important things to do :-), than it is how one should go about to log in.
Which is the point I was making in my message.
At any rate, all this would have been avoided if either I had found that interesting "Logging in to Notepad++ Community thread first, or if that thread had been summarized in a couple of lines in the FAQ.
At least, “Available logins” would be an improvement, though the context as you sketch it, also has its importance.
