    Thanks a lot for changing the horizontal line in the lower part of the Find dialog! Now it’s continuous and looks much better. To make it even more consistent, I suggest making the spacing between the vertical and horizontal lines and the edges the same. Right now it’s just a little bit off. I’d use the vertical spacing for the horizontal spacing as well. [image: 1794659144048-notepad-_ykqxgqvf3r1a.png] I hope I’m not being too pedantic, but I think these little details matter and make Notepad++ even better. You may not consciously notice them, but your subconscious picks up on them, and they contribute to the overall feel of the application.

    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.
