    I installed (updated previous version) the 64 bit Zip version (7.1.1) on Windows 10 Home and when I went to reset my Preferences, it did not allow to set the print margins in inches

    This isn’t exactly new behavior. I just checked back in Notepad++ v6.0 from 2012, and then checked v4.0 from 2007, and it was still exclusively in millimeters in both of those ancient versions. It wasn’t your upgrade which changed something for you. It was just never in inches.

    BTW, 0.25" margins are 6mm, not 0.6mm. For an approximate conversion from inch to mm, just multiply inches by 25 to get approximate millimeters. (It’s really 25.4mm/in, but that extra .4 doesn’t matter much: 1.5%).

    When that happens, you lose the link

    You might want to enable Settings > Preferences > Recent Files History > ☑ Don’t check at launch time, which should at least prevent them from disappearing from the MRU when you first launch Notepad++.

    I’m not sure that option will be sufficient to save you if you click the MRU before the network drive has connected… but really, you’re asking a program to open a file that does not exist (from the perspective of your whole computer, not just the app). If I were in that situation, and often found myself in a race with the network remap, I would probably make a folder-shortcut to the network drive, and always open that after re-starting; once the folder was open, I would then open the file-under-consideration from the explorer window, rather than from the Notepad++ MRU, because by then, the drive is mapped.

    @Sebastian-Koerner

    I can’t see your reported issue concerning the broken characters

    Regarding the extra char, this happens when you chose Encode in Ansi, which basically is a view of the current bytes and because those chars are encoded in two
    bytes in utf8 you see the additional first byte. If you choose convert to ansi, from a clean state, it shows it correctly.

    My guess is it is something to do with your company’s setup. Could be the PC build, the way OneDrive has been configured, the internet firewall/proxy connection.

    Sorry I can’t be of more help but it looks like you may be stuck with having to work around it by copying from OneDrive to your local hard-drive (e.g. desktop), edit using Notepad++ there, then copy back to OneDrive.

    Thank you for your advice. I managed to determine where that data was saved and put the stuff in there. I think the user-defined options would be a better place for it, as you suggested, but its working OK now so I am not going to move it.

    maybe it’s the change in the new version of scintilla…

    try downloading the zip version of 7.6.6, which is the last version before the scintilla upgrade. unzip it into a known directory (maybe on your desktop or similar), and run notepad++ from there instead of your normal shortcut/association. If that version works, then uninstall your new installation, and install the 7.6.6 install version instead. Also, if that’s the case, let us know, because it will probably require a bug report.

    I would suggest, shutdown the computer,no more errors and warnings.
    Seriously, how should one try to help with such a post?
    You didn’t specify which npp version you are using.
    You didn’t specify which plugin is causing issues and most importantly
    you didn’t tell about the errors and warnings.

    Actually, I just found where this can be set in the style configurator.

    It is not in global styles, so you have to change the background color for each language that is on that list.

    Solved.

    Thanks for the reply.
    ‘Linking’ instead of ‘attaching’ definitely makes it challenging for us old folks.
    Thankfully use of Notepad++ is simple :)
    We will just try and give a verbal description of ‘images’ for our questions.

    In NppExec, execute the following (path may vary with your Python installation):

    C:\Python37\Scripts\pylint.exe “$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)”

    You can add this as a Macro with: NppExec -> Advanced Options

    You can jump from the error reported in NppExec console to the line with the error in the editor with: NppExec -> Console Output Filters

    Depending on the linter that you run, you will have to tweak the filters and the order of the filters. I run both pylint and flake8.

    I find this process to be very efficient. I tried VS Code for a while and I did not like it. I would rather use Vim…

    @Eric-Redegeld

    You would need to add $(FULL_CURRENT_PATH) to your command line for running Chrome. When running the command, Notepad++ will substitute the actual current tab path into the command before running it.

    By why not try View (menu) > View Current File in -> Chrome instead?
