    @vladimir-zherdenovsky ,

    I don’t think that AnalysePlugin has released a version of their plugin that’s compatible with the changes made in Notepad++ v8.3.3 – there was a slight change to the interface between plugins and Notepad++ made in v8.3.0; many plugins are having to release a new version to make it compatible, and if a plugin doesn’t have an updated version, many old plugins will not work with v8.3.3.

    It looks like AnalysePlugin created a pre-release 01.13-pre1 a few days after NPP v8.3 was released, so if you download the zipfile at https://sourceforge.net/projects/analyseplugin/files/binaries/v01.13-pre1/ and unzip the DLL overtop your old AnalysePlugin.dll, it might be able to work with NPP v8.3.3 for you.

    Good luck

    Always Append Extension

    @brian-d ,

    If I type blah with “append extension” enabled, it calls it blah.txt when saved, which is the exact behavior I would desire.

    And in Windows OS, if you type blah. (with the period), that is the way of telling Windows OS “I want the extension portion to be empty: that is, NO EXTENSION, I MEAN IT” … so if the developer were to take your advice, and say “if the user types period, which is the OS’s defined way of specifying no extension, I should ignore the defined behavior and instead use something that is completely nonstandard after 30+ years of DOS/Windows backward compatibilty”, that seems a rather strange option. Especially since all you have to do is not type the period if you want Notepad++ to apply the extension.

    If you mean, "I want to enter blah.xyz, and have it save it as blah.xyz.txt, then at that point, just type a couple extra characters. It’s not that onerous: but that’s just my opinion – and since this Community Forum is made up of users, and is not official feature-request tracking, that’s all you will get here in the forum, is opinions and workarounds; the FAQ in the forum explains where to go for actually submitting a feature request to the development team.

    Active document in document list is not highlighted

    @niente0 ,

    The default Dark Mode theme has the active tab highlight as not a huge difference from the background color, but it makes more contrast than your screenshot shows, at least to my eyes:
    9a989085-efbc-46bb-9fd8-6cdb0bd6f773-image.png

    Maybe you’ll want to start with that theme, rather than starting with “black board” (because “black board”, and the rest of the classical darker themes, were designed with the light UI in mind; default-dark-mode is the only theme that was designed with the Dark Mode UI in mind).

    But yes, as of now, the Document List “highlight” background involves interpolating between the current Settings > Style Configurator > Global Styles > Default Style > Background colour and black… so when Background colour is very dark, there isn’t much contrast (and if it’s black, there is no contrast).

    So yes, your suggestion that Notepad++ look at the background color, and determine whether the “active highlight” in the Document List should go darker or lighter is a good one. We cannot do anything about changing the source code here, as a forum made up of the Community of fellow users.

    There may or may not have been an issue created about that before. If you don’t know where Notepad++ issues are tracked, look in the forum’s FAQ section, which will link you there; then you can search the issues for keywords like “dark mode”, “document list”, “background”, “contrast”, and similar terms, and see if it’s been brought up before. (Might want to check active and closed issues, because maybe it’s been asked and rejected)

    @alex-trefilov
    The problem is probably for files in network shares.
    Notepad++ tries to open a file which its path refers to a network share, Windows tries to reconnect with the shared folder and if the shared server is not accessible, the networking timeout is long until the file open fails. Since Notepad++ is single threaded timeouts for multiple files (mainly on different shares) can accumulate into a very long delay.

    Notepad++ does not know if a path refers to a local file or to a network share so it can’t really do anything about it.

    The only solution I am aware of is to give up the “Remember current session” and let Notepad++ open empty every time.

    @alan-kilborn said in Great Tool, Maybe a few More Default Plugins would help:

    Attempting to distribute plugins authored by others as part of the distro is IMO just asking for trouble.

    Agreed.

    @Geoff-Hoyle
    Welcome to the Notepad++ community!

    Perhaps more clarification? Why do you think more plugins should be added? What do you consider “useful”? What are you trying to do and can’t that a plugin may solve?

    Have a look at this old thread that talks about some “must-have” plugins. The Plugin Admin list is long and there are some 32/64 bit differences so finding what you want probably requires some research. If you have specific questions about plugins or tasks you want that you can’t do - ask here (open a new thread) and I’m sure you’ll get more specific help / answers.

    Cheers.

    Xml.Tools.2.4.11.0.x64.Unicode

    Why would you use such an old version? The latest is 3.1.1.12 with 3.1.1.13 a few days away.

    This is not a generic Windows help forum. I’ll show you a google search which may bear fruit for you (it gives multiple pages which all say the same thing)… but I make no guarantees, and any followons should be made in a generic Windows 11 help forum, not in this Notepad++ forum.

    @ric-cze said in File encryption with nppcrypt:

    Doesn’t this header make it easier for an attacker to decrypt the encrypted data?

    Simple answer: Yes, if you know which algorithm was used, you don’t have to test any others, at least not in a brute force attack.
    But is that important? Only if the vulnerability is known or the algorithm used is weak anyway.
