FYI The new release will be based on RC2, which is more stable than other candidates are. Thank you for your testing and report!

@User-Soft said in Notepad++ 6.8.4 released: @donho said: @User-Soft Tested in v6.8.4 under Windows 10 32bits, “hide in try” works for me. Windows 7 64bits - not work. 6.8.1 - work hide in tray, 6.8.4 - not work. Please check again Windows 7 64bits Yes, it worked.

@Alan-Kilborn Thanks for looking over it, yes, before I just took the return value without sending the padding, now I do that. These are the kind of problems that take too much time just because someone didn’t read the doc properly… phew.

@MeanUncleMonster said in Notepad++ v8.4.8 Release: is there any way to retain this feature in the later versions I think you are referring to “enable scrolling beyond last line” which is under Settings, Preferences, Editing. Just tick the box for that option. I would have thought that option would have been retained from the previous version as it seems you did have it enabled. So the option was not removed, but in your case it may have been reset which led you to believe it was removed. Terry PS i just upgraded from and to the same versions as you refer to. In my situation the option was still enabled after the upgrade.

@conky77 It is not a “must”, but a comment in general ->“localization” could be useful: “* some strings will be updated after restarting Notepad++”. If you agree, I can insert an issue. It’s surely a limit but it’s not a bug to me. Users usually decide the language during installation. Even they switch later, the same language will stay for the next session. I won’t make the tips dynamically because it needs a lot of coding effort for nothing.

@Alan-Kilborn That is part for the translators which (like me) are doing that for free: https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/category/6/translation https://npp-user-manual.org/docs/binary-translation/ https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/blob/master/PowerEditor/installer/nativeLang/afrikaans.xml So if you want to update and share the africaans.xml just go ahead!

RC2 of v8.4.9 is available. Let’s talk there.

I think it’s obvious that it’s trying to read something from secondary drive. So there’s need investigation what is it.

Thanks for the Helpful Suggestions. I think I figured out why it’s doing this, but I don’t know how to fix it. The app is installed on my OS drive, which is an SSD, but it seems Notepad++ is waiting for my other drives, which are regular HDD to spin up before it launches.

@Alex-Povolotsky , If…you download it from the official download site…and not any hack sites that aren’t to be trusted to begin with.

@dinkumoil said in Notepad++ v8.4.7 Release Candidate: It is not necessary to open an issue. Using SysInternals’ ProcMon I was able to figure out that Notepad++ reopens a file when its character encoding is changed. So, the issue I was talking about should be resolved automatically when already existing issue Reloading a file will mark all lines as changed in change history bar gets resolved. I can reproduce it. The issue is kind of reminder (assigned to me) to put me on the track when I’ve time to work on it.

@donho Any progress in this matter? The problem persists in version 8.4.6 and I’m still unable to use a newer version than 8.4.1…

@CennoxX A restartup should restore the correct color. It’s due to the absence of style “Change History margin” in your stylers.xml: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/blob/master/PowerEditor/src/stylers.model.xml#L1416 You can add it yourself into in your stylers.xml, or just remove it, a new stylers.xml will be copied from stylers.model.xml The Change History margin’s color is difficult to manage. It could use the Line Number margin’s color style ID 33 (Scintilla default behaviour) and users cannot customize its color at all. Or we provide customization (it’s the current option) to disassociate it from style ID 33, but there will be such glitch while switching among the themes. We have to choose one or another - the perfect world doesn’t exist.
