What’s the value in that?

I don’t use VS2017. Only to create a SLN / VCXPROJ file and maybe update the SDK. I generally use Notepad++ to develop and then an NppExec script that helps me compile with ‘msbuild’. I don’t do much development in C/C++, mainly scripting with Perl, Python and other text doc manipulation.

Sorry no help :-(

closing and rejecting feature request #722 led to…

I see.

In that issue comment thread it is said “it’s hard for making a consistent UI if we want ‘in selection’ for every find command”. To that I’d say, why not just remove the little border that boxes in the In Selection checkbox and the Count button?

Seriously, though, I’d guess that the code to do, for example, Find All in Current Document with In Selection as a qualifier is much harder than the Count version, otherwise why not include it? I’d use that variant quite often.

There was another edit app in DOS years ago as well, many moons ago called MS DOS Editor.

That did the trick. Thanks.

If you like it, vote for it.

Because a large number of votes will matter?

I needed some name with TAG in it.
Taglit in hebrew (תגלית) is “Discovery”.
And LEET is associated to Elite.
So I combined them.

@Eduardo-Gonzales ,

I want emergency help

I think we need to start by adjusting your expectations. Notepad++ is free and open source software. You didn’t pay the developers for their time and effort. Further, you haven’t come to an official “support” hotline, where you are paying for immediate answers to your problems; you have come to the Community forum, where people from the Notepad++ Community, who are fellow Notepad++ users (and occasionally people who have participated in development, though not always, or even necessarily often) who come to this forum to freely give their time to help users – both long-term or new – solve problems or find workarounds.

And note my use of the word “workarounds”: often, we in the Community provide you with debugging help, and once the problem is found, come up with alternates or workarounds to help you through your issue, because we cannot directly create updates to the Notepad++ core code, and/or to the plugin code involved; and even when bug reports are issued in the proper channels for the application or the appropriate plugin, they can take weeks or months before they are implemented and released (if ever).

In light of these circumstances, instead of demanding our immediate help, you should politely request help.

on to your specific technical problem:

After updating NOTEPAD ++ 7.5.9

Does that mean you previously had v7.5.9, and it has now updated to a new version? Or that you had an even older version, and have now upgraded to v7.5.9? Because the likely solution paths will be different for those two circumstances. Also,

are you using 32-bit or 64-bit Notepad++? (Zen Coding plugin is currently only released for the 32-bit.)

Both of those questions will be correctly answered by sending us the ? > Debug Info > Copy debug info into clipboard. Further, so we know which copy of Zen Coding is installed, please go to Plugins > Zen Coding - Python > About and let us know exactly what that dialog box says – or, if there is no Plugins > Zen Coding - Python, let us know that.

plug-in does not work

Could you give us specifics? Does that mean it doesn’t exist in the menu after you install it? Or it does exist in the menu, but nothing happens when you try to use it? Or something happens, but that “something” is an error message?

Giving us information will do a lot more to help us help you than using exclamation points and demanding compliance to your desires.

If you provide us with information, and treat us in a reasonable manner, we will do our best to help you.

@dinkumoil That fixed it. Thanks!

@Ekopalypse Yes I confirm that only happened if I delete from bottom to top. I opened issue on github. Thanks!

welcome to the notepad++ community, @Alain-Vercammen

thank you for asking.

you are absolutely correct here, to discuss possibilities or pre-discuss issues with a large audience of community members and devs.
unfortunately long full path names are still a windows problem in general.

you can try to use the free utility FileSeek to test if it is working on your path structure length.
it has notepad++ integration and a lot of include/exclude, date and regex functions. much more than can ever be integrated into notepad++.

if you like that it gets eventually solved, e.g. with path workaround tricks, directly at the notepad++ core, you can also follow our FAQ Desk: Feature Request or Bug Report guide, to search the issue tracker for similar path length issues, or file a new issue, if you can’t find any matching issue.

many thanks and best regards.

Thoughts ?

not really, at least not yet.

as both version 7.6.4 and 7.6.6 are not code signed, and 7.6.4 works, i would exclude a security policy, that prevents unsigned code to access your data files.

if you have time and dare testing pre-release versions, you could also try the current 7.7 release candidates from >>> here <<<, to see if they would work on your system. they are code signed again, so maybe they could work, if it is a security setting or protection software that causes this.
(portable .zip versions are also available, for testing without the need of installing them)

best regards.

@Pierfrancesco-Marro

this is the default behaviour of all official notepad++ releases, installed and portable.

if it is not, please go to the notepad++ menu settings > preferences > backup and activate remember current session for next launch and enable session snapshot and periodic backup (7 seconds) as seen at the screenshot below:
