Not confirm.

Try to restart turning off ALL plugins:
hold down the Shift (Optons for Mac) while starting Firefox
or

It’s your right to choose whatever text editor you want to. However, crashes cause data loss; it is always your responsibility to make sure that critical data is backed up.
More information about the issue can be found at (https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/15748/faq-desk-crash-caused-my-file-to-be-all-nulls).
If you wanted to be helpful, instead of just complaining, you could try to reproduce the problem: whoever can be the one to find a reliable, reproducible way to force a crash causing the data loss will provide a necessary tool in fixing the problem: so far, the author has not been able to reproduce the problem, and thus cannot debug it.
Hello @david-bailey and All,
I have never read, yet, a more intelligent text, about the general problem of backups :-)) I, personally, think that this article deserves to be located in the FAQ section !
Cheers,

@Fly-Wire
delete your characters
put the cursor into the next line, press and hold shift+alt
click with the mouse into the position of the last line holding the data to be move
ctrl+x
go up to the line with the initial delete chars
ctrl+v
Took longer this to write than to do.
Cheers

Agreed that NPP is not an IDE, but, once one adds the proper plug-ins to it, these are some of the things that can be done with it:
Compile and link programs and jump to errors in the source code (NPP Exec)
Tag and use tags on source files (TagsJump and TagsView)
Keep many sets of files (sessions) at hand for editing (Session Manager)
Easily compare editor files to files in source control and check in files (Tortoise SVN)
Open files by name/pattern that are part of a solution (Solution Hub)
I suspect that a fair portion of long-time NPP users are programmers of one sort or another, and for good reason: it has a lot of features we use (syntax highlighting and the like) and it supports plug-ins that allow it to function pretty much like an IDE.
