    I’ve found with v7.6 (32 bit) it does not work having loaded the “DoxyIt” plugin.

    @Meta-Chuh that is better than my suggestion as it allows to have full session functionality aka unsaved files for both accounts. Good one :-) Eko

    @cipher-1024 said: You could just hold the ALT key down… This works great. If there was an option to simulate holding the alt key that would be nice but this method will save me so much frustration. I’m glad to see I’m not the only one it affects. My thanks to everyone that replied.

    This was happening to me and I uninstalled and cleared out every notepad++ folder I could find afterward and it kept happening. Turns out it was the Notepad++ shortcut in my Windows 10 taskbar. I deleted it and created a new one by re-pinning it from the start menu after re-installing. My guess is the original one didn’t have quotes around the working directory.

    “File cannot be saved and it may be protected . Open in administrator mode” I occasionally see this message, seems fairly random but maybe there is an underlying reason? Dismissing the popup box and attempting to save again usually proceeds with no more problem. So, I dunno…

    I just fixed this on my PC. Here is what I did: Browse to the location of Notepad++. Copy the directory. Mine was “C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe” Run CMD as administrator. Create a new file type to associate with file extensions. This command for me was… ftype nppfile=“C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe” %1 Associate your file extension with the new file type. The command was… assoc .nfo=nppfile Now when I double-click on .nfo files it opens them in notepad++. Hope it works for you!

    @kellyyer So the comma character is a more-common delimiter than yours, but if you replace every comma in the following with your special delimiter, this should work or at least get you started: Invoke Replace (press ctrl+h). Find what zone: (?-s)^(?:.+?,){18}(.+?,.+?),.+ <–again replace every comma here! Replace with zone: \1 Search mode: Regular expression Action: Press the Replace All button I encourage you to read about regular expressions, some ways to get started here. Try the above expression in some of the interactive regex sites to see how it works. Perhaps you will end up with a new technique in your data manipulation arsenal.

    NPP 7.6 changed the way that plugins are handled. This post gives a quick summary, using XMLTools as the example. This one goes into more detail for helping someone through the process. This is the official post announcing the change, and here is a discussion of the changes to the plugin directory structure. There are quite a few other posts spread throughout the forum, if you spend a few minutes looking for them. I think the first is most likely to give you the quick information you want. Until the Plugin arrangement stabilizes, I am staying with my working 7.5.8 instead of upgrading to the 7.6 (or beyond), so I haven’t tried any of the recommendations. However, those links will give you a starting point.

    @Scott-Sumner Hmm, the plugin itself does nearly nothing when it is loaded, it only adds its menu entries to the Notepad++ UI. Only when you click on the Spy! menu entry it examines the main menu and the toolbar of Notepad++ and fills its trees. All these data gets thrown away when you close the dialog. But it is a Delphi application and as such it incorporates the needed parts of the VCL (Visual Component Library), the abstraction layer of Delphi for the Win32 API. In this context it loads a noticeable amount of Windows DLL files. Maybe this causes the increased load time. I have installed about to 45 plugins, thus my Notepad++ needs some time to start up anyway and I was not aware of an increased load time after adding the new plugin.

    @Meta-Chuh Well, maybe… Let’s see if at least one of the “trainees” can put forth the question in such a way as to get a satisfactory answer.
