I have tested Notepad++ 7.8.9 32 bits version under Windows 10 64 bits, installing a plugin with PluginAdmin works fine for me (Notepad++ restarted as expected and plugin was installed).
The reason of GUP problem I can see is downloading failure, so could you provide me the name of plugin you want to install so I can reproduce the bug?
Known Issues:
Comment has to be preceded by at least two white-space characters e.g. carriage-return + line-feed, line-feed + one space or tab, or 2 spaces (for inline comment).
The file has to end with an empty line.
e.g.
class ThisClassWillNotShowUp {CRLF
void Method() {CRLF
}CRLF
}EOF
and
class ThisClassWillShowUp {CRLF
void Method() {CRLF
}CRLF
}CRLF
EOF
“Embedded” comment is not supported when the ‘commentExpr’-attribute is defined. All the comment blocks (found in parse step 1) are skipped when searching for class code blocks (parse step 2) and method/function code blocks (parse step 3.3 and 4, resp.) i.e. the function definition has to start and end in the same non-comment zone (even if ‘mainExpr’ takes into account function-definition-embedded comments).
e.g. C/C++ function definition with “embedded” comment:
void /* comment */
FunctionName /* comment */
( /* comment */
/* comment */Argument1Type/* comment */Argument1Name /* comment */
/* comment */
, Argument2Type Argument2Name /* comment */
, ... /* comment */
) /* comment */
A file extension association requires at least one (dummy) UDL association.
e.g.
<association id="markdown_header" userDefinedLangName="Markdown (Default)" />
<association id="markdown_header" userDefinedLangName="CommonMark" />
<association id="markdown_header" userDefinedLangName="MultiMarkdown" />
<association id="markdown_header" ext=".md" />
<association id="markdown_header" ext=".markdown" />
The ‘userDefinedLangName’-attribute value has to match the name of the UDL exactly as it appears in the ‘Language’-menu i.e. case-sensitive.

@Alan-Robinsin ,
In general, to edit a file in administrator mode, the Notepad++ application has to be run in administrator mode. That is accomplished the same as any other Windows application, and is not unique to Notepad++.
An example sequence that worked for me
Exit all instances of Notepad++.
Run one instance as administrator (you may have to browse to the notepad++.exe and right click, run as administrator).
it should say [Administrator] at the end of the window title
File > Open, and browse to the file you want to edit. You should be able to save, if it was really an administrator-mode issue.

Nice to hear it, @Seanán-Ó-Coistín.
You can send Irish translation to me, or do a PR on https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus
Thank you.
Notepad++ loses the session and temp file loaded after update. There are the settings “Remember current session for next launch”, “Enable session snapshot and periodic backup”, “Backup path”, all ok. It is not expected to lose session after reinstall or crash. Since Notepad++ is supposed to be able to load the closed session but it doesn’t load after reinstall, it is a big fail of Development team. It is a critical bug that team doesn’t fix for so much time. And don’t tell me that I have to search the files in %appdata%. I don’t have to care about that. It is your failure.
@A-Shrinivas-Rao said in Search issue:
f I need to go up I need to check Backward direction or vice versa.
Have you tried 2-button find mode?
Turn it on with this, by ticking the box with the speech bubble:
And it will then look like this:
And you can then forget the Backward direction checkbox is even there.
Alternatively, with the keyboard, Enter will search forwards and Shift+Enter will search backwards.
Plenty of options so your time isn’t wasted. :-)
