There is not currently a 64bit version of N++ (well, offically at least, I think somewhere you can find a 64bit build). There is a page here describing briefly about large files. That being said…there are people very interested in 64bit builds and people have been looking into it. If you dig around on the forum a bit you can find some discussions.

Also, what kind of file is it that it won’t open (XML possibly)? I can open plain text files several hundred megabytes.

Thank you! That appears to have solved my problem.

You would still have a lot of stuff stored in memory that wouldn’t sync at all. It is fairly straight forward to sync configuration settings, under the settings options just specify a folder that is synced between computers.

Long ago there use to be a plugin that allowed two users to connect their N++ instances together and edit the file simultaneously (kind of like google docs allows). Can’t recall what it was called or if it even works with newer versions of N++

“I suppose installing notepad++ multiple times into different directories with a portable version and calling the one with the preferences you want is an option here?”

Yes, this is how I would do it. Rather than creating “real” copies (and having to update them), you might want to use symlinks though. An underused feature that can save a lot of hassle.

Suggestion support lisp/clojure style autocomplete

symbol-xxx-000
namespace/symbol-xxx-001

You can copy each one into your plugins folder at a time and restart N++ until it starts causing issues, then you’ll know for sure which one is causing it.

See this thread. It will be fixed in 6.8.3
