    @donho said: Add highlight all matches for Find dialog. My 2 cents on this new feature: I’m not opposed to it, in fact think it’s a great idea, and anticipate it being useful to my own work at times. However, as someone who tends to keep his hands on the keyboard as much as possible, and is very used to hitting the TAB key once to move from FIND WHAT to REPLACE WITH, I find the disruption to my routine rather annoying. I also don’t like that the position of the checkbox which enables it results in shortening of the FIND WHAT field, since I often populate it with lengthy strings (usually of the regex variety) and prefer to be able to see as much of its content as possible, within the confines of all else I want to keep visible on my screen. Would it be possible to move it, perhaps to directly in front of where the words FIND WHAT appear (looks like enough room there to me), without anybody else being negatively impacted? Just hoping to get a feel for whether anyone else is on board with my suggestion before pursuing it formally.

    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.

    I rebooted a second time and so far it seems to have stayed fixed. If it comes back I’ll post again, otherwise assume the fix worked.

    Hi again, The new version of the SQLinForm plugin adds a Data Flow Explorer to help understanding complex SQL with a diagram. It is free. Hope you find this helpful! [image: 1794519396113-fc367b79-5527-41fb-968d-115e0a7ba3ed-image-resized.jpeg]

    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.
