    Hello Henning,

    Error comes from the plugin.

    /** Loads the settings.xml file if it has not already been loaded. Creates it if it doesn't exist. */ bool readSettingsFile() { DWORD lastErr; tXmlError xmlErr; LPCWSTR settingsFile; if (!_xmlDocument) { settingsFile = sys_getSettingsFile(); if (!pth::fileExists(settingsFile)) { pth::createFileIfMissing(settingsFile, INITIAL_CONTENTS); _isDirty = true; } _xmlDocument = new tinyxml2::XMLDocument(); xmlErr = _xmlDocument->LoadFile(settingsFile); if (xmlErr != kXmlSuccess) { lastErr = ::GetLastError(); msg::error(lastErr, L"%s: Error %u loading the settings file.", _W(__FUNCTION__), xmlErr); return false; } } return true; }

    Seems that plugin can’t find settings.xml file.

    Do you know whether the author of sessionmanager is active in this board ?
    No, I don’t know.

    Cheers

    Hello, @Murray-Sobol
    there are difference but in default configuration they are hardly seen.

    Goto
    Settings->Style Configurator->Global Styles->White space symbols
    and set foreground color to black

    then it should be more obvious.

    Cheers

    Uses Notepad++ in Version 6.8.9 and Filezilla 3.15.0-rc1

    The Problem solved via a Filezilla Update to 3.15.01:

    “Fix regression from 3.16.0-beta1 where extra data being appended to some downloaded files”

    Anyway, thanks so far for the quick reply.

    Ah! So not only too stupid, but also too blind to notice a singular deviation from otherwise very uniform use of camel case for function names. Unless “goto” is now a single English word in its own right and not just a programming command. Grumble grumble.

    Thanks again Claudia for getting me unstuck !!

    Hello @TechTony2016,

    afaik, not yet supported by npp. If you have python script plugin installed you could do

    editor.setFoldFlags(0)

    Hello Marcelo-Luz,

    I assume I know what’s going on.
    You start npp as elevated process (as seen by Admin mode : ON) but, I assume,
    explorer was start with normal privileges. When you now, drag a file from explorer
    to npp you get that kind of behaviour as windows doesn’t allow it.
    In general, a process with lower privilege cannot drag something to a process with higher privileges. So, solution would be either to start explorer as admin as well or npp with normal privileges.

    Cheers

    @Tha-BeatBeest

    because you asking that kind of question I have to assume that you don’t know any programming or scripting language at all or
    that you want to achieve something together with npp which you didn’t mentioned yet.
    There is no one and only programming/scripting language. Every language has its strength and weakness and it simply depends on
    what you really want to achieve.

    Style quirk in Windows 7

    Hello Bill,

    Thanks for the FABULOUS assistance, Claudia!

    your welcome.

    One other sort-of-related thing: when I was first trying this out several weeks ago, I started with a portable installation, and changes I made >in style configurator were not persistent. Close NPP and reopen, and you’re back to the default style settings.

    there are several portable versions out there and they behave differently in term how to store the data. I refer to the “official”
    portable version, which is the zip or 7z file you can download on the npp homepage. When using this one, it works as long as
    you use the same drive layout on all computers, which, I agree, isn’t normally the same.
    The reason is, that, for example, the theme stored in config.xml uses the complete instead of a relative path.
    You can change this by editing, with an editor other than npp, the config.xml directly but be aware that changing any other gui option would overwrite it again.
    Request to change this has been already adressed.

    So, current situation is like this

    <GUIConfig name="stylerTheme" path="D:\ProgramData\notepad++\themes\Bespin.xml" />

    but by changing it to

    <GUIConfig name="stylerTheme" path=".\themes\Bespin.xml" />

    it can be used on an usb stick without a problem.

    Cheers

    Thanks, it was the Session Manager plugin. It wasn’t updated for nearly a year though so no idea why it broke.

    @PeteMan-Chernman ,

    there is no npp save in, only a save as. Could it be that you mad a mistake in that case, if not, then it might be a plugin
    which has introduced this and therefore the cause of the problem might be the plugin as well.
    If it was a mistake, can you post the debug info from your installation? Can be found under ?->Debug Info

    Cheers

    @Łukasz-Gry it has been reported that Snapshot/Backup functionality can cause that kind of problem.
    To deactivate goto Settings->Preferences->Backup and uncheck enable session…

    @guy038 Good one! It’s a bit confusing, and it took me a few tries to get it right, but for selecting a column of data in 17,000 lines it was the only way to go!
