    Well, it is very unfortunate that this problem is happening. Even files that were open/saved with UTF-8 still get opened as ANSI and this is just unbearable when I have to open dozens of files over and over and remember to switch to UTF-8 or get corrupt data. I used npp for years and seems it is time to move on =/

    Hello again,

    Close NPP.
    Replace your CustomizeToolbar.dll (in the plugins folder) with the new DLL.
    Delete your Compare.ini (in the Config folder).
    Start NPP.

    With the new version you can cancel a running Compare.

    BR.

    But then, I found this on Stack Overflow:

    If I put this in a shortcut target and set it to run minimized, I get all the desired results with no visible console window.

    c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /c “path = %path%;%appdata%\Notepad++;C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++&start notepad++.exe”

    Victory!!!

    @Enrico-Tracanzan

    has been already addressed in issue 926.
    But I guess it’s treated as minor bug.

    @Sandeep-Gupta

    if there wasn’t a backup set it doesn’t make sense to try to run recovery software as
    no additional files have been created. Sorry.

    Cheers

    Although I can’t state for sure, I think this is automated that if a post hasn’t had any activity for a while it is automatically locked. At one time there was a really bad problem on this forum with spam accounts so some precautions were put in place. I’m cant say for sure if these are still applicable (maybe @milipili or @donho can decide if these are still relevant). I agree that even if some posts seem “old” they can still be relevant for discussion.

    Closing Threads Stating a thread is too old.

    I’m not sure I recall any of these happening. (If so it is incredibly infrequent). Care to point out some examples?

    @schittli

    Should the Scintilla bugfix automatically work in Notepad++ / does Notepad++ automatically use the latest Scintilla Release?

    No, afaik npp uses scintilla 3.5.6 at the moment.

    MS decided that certain actions do require administrative privileges.
    Some of them can be worked around others not.

    It seems I wasn’t clear enough.
    When using Settings->Style Configurator and selecting the language in question,
    one of the attributes under Style refers to the keywords of that language.
    Select it and you should see an additional box showing the keywords. Right click in this box,
    Select all->Copy and you can paste it into the UDL keyword box.

    @Harpreet-Singh-Bassan
    what exactly do you wanna know about UDL?
    The website in question is http://ivan-radic.github.io/udl-documentation/introduction/.

    Btw. I’m an npp user - not a developer.

    Claudia – Thanks Thanks Thanks --------- a lot. I have installed and checked the Plugin thoroughly. It is exactly what I needed. Changing colors for texts and having update automatic is fantastic. I wish this is a standard plugin pre-loaded or can be shown under Search Menu with ribbon button called “Enhanced Search” like this.
    Once again Thank you.

    Sorry, I’m not aware that there is an java automation plugin available.
    So, maybe you wanna give the python example a try?
