    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 .

    @musicpanda @musicpanda said: I got an error popup “Authenticode check failed: signature or signing certificate are not recognized”. That was not really a problem: I just clicked the message away and the file opened in Notepad++. Weird - in the past (pre v8.0 N++ versions), when N++ was showing that security message, it then couldn’t continue and quit (that was a msg used for checking of the dynamically loaded Scintilla SciLexer.dll). to 8.9.8.1) Notepad is still coming to the front but the file is no longer opened. Are you using a shortened notepad++.exe file path in the AstroGrep settings? I mean e.g. C:\Progra~\Notepad++\Notepad++.exe . If so, just upgrade to the latest v8.9.9.1, where that thing is fixed.

    @PeterJones said: See https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/nppShell/issues/79 Well… I spoke too soon. The duplicate menu entry disappeared after I applied the suggested fix, but sometime later it reappeared. Not sure what’s going on and I don’t have time to tackle this right now, but will get back to it tomorrow.

    That’s a clever little experiment! I never really thought about using regular expressions to represent mathematical patterns like multiples of 3, but it makes sense when you look at the binary sequence. Definitely a fun way to explore just how powerful regex can be beyond ordinary text searching.
