    I had the same problem going on for some time now. I ended up coding within remote desktop, directly on the server instead over my workgroup internal LAN connection. Somehow that made it stop / or almost stop. Not ideal, but this was a workaround.

    SORRY, IT IS WORKING.
    But I had two versions of Notepad++ without realizing it. Removing the old one resolved this issue.

    You need to enable that your session is retained during instances. However you will always need to save your files to disk for this to work.

    While you wait, you can use the Language->Define your language… dialog to create your own syntax highlighting.

    The simple solution is to open the files in the backup folder with Notepad++, possibly doing a Save As or Rename to put them in a different location after opening.

    Ideally, if you had also backed up the session.xml file in AppData\Roaming\Notepad++, you could theoretically restore that file also and have it restore your session. However, it’s very finicky, and if any small detail has changed (path, for example) for any file, it will simply not open that file in the session. So the more reliable solution is the simple one above.

    You can find the link under Resources on the Notepad++ home page. To get Plugin Manager, navigate to http://www.brotherstone.co.uk/npp/pm/ There are installation instructions there also, but basically, you unzip the file and copy both the plugins and updater sub-folders from the zip file to your %ProgramFiles%\Notepad++ folder.

    Also, I believe the most current version is v1.4.9. :) No, I don’t know why the most current version of the Plugin Manager is not included with the install. :( I’m on 1.4.9 and it seems to work well.

    Not natively, but you could give the LineFilter2 plugin a try. It has options to show lines before and after matches:

    Not sure if this is a downside for you or not, but it puts the results in a new editor tab window…

    If this (or ANY posting on the Notepad++ Community site) is useful, don’t reply with a “thanks”, simply up-vote ( click the ^ in the ^ 0 v area on the right ).

    @abolfazl-yaasi Thanks so much for posting a screen shot! That really helped to tell what was happening. You need to have the Regular expression selected at the bottom left of the dialog, instead of Extended.

  • Regex to match file and version number

    Hey Pat

    The regex \w+.*? seems quite wide - it will match “any set of one or more word characters (equal to [a-zA-Z0-9_]”

    Are you using a global switch? e.g. /\w+.*?/g (as a javascript regex object)
    Without it, it will only run the match once, stopping after matching bubba

    Also, the ? makes the + lazy, so it will only match as little as needed - remove the ?
    e.g. /\w+.*/g
    (it should be returning the file name and version now and, depending on the text being matched, a lot of other stuff)

    A white space character (e.g. /\w+\s./g ) or space (/\w+\x20./g) character after \w would also limit the matches.

    An end anchor $ does not require CRLF. In fact /\w+\x20.$/g would only match the last line with the file name and version.
    Add a multi-line switch (e.g. /\w+\x20.$/gm) if there is only one match per line

    Finally, we probably need to limit .* to match only numbers and periods
    e.g. /\w+\x20[0-9.]+$/gm

    When I run document.body.innerText.match(/\w+\x20[0-9.]+$/gm) against this page in the console I get
    (2) [“bubba 1.2.11”, “POSTS 66”]

    “No cloud” is picked. I can save a file to that directory from WordPad. Under Backup Remember current session, and Enable session are both picked.

    The backup path gets set somehow that I can’t figure out, on the Win 10 PC it’s different. But in either case, it can’t be modified. Maybe I’ll try to uninstall, but it’s really just an unzip to a folder, so I’m not sure where it’s getting it’s path from.
