@Afik-Gilboa , “Everything running as Administrator” isn’t very helpful. I already linked you to ways to check so you can disable admin on Notepad++. Regarding permissions, unfortunately, because you didn’t share any information about those directories, or what the directory permissions are, or provide any directory listings, or anything like what I asked for, I will not be able to help you any further for now. If you ever decide you want help, feel free to provide actual information, rather than one sentence statements with nothing useful. Good luck.

@PeterJones, many thanks to Your reply. This workaround works perfectly. I searched for this workaround (because I expected that anyone wouls have the same needs) but wasn’t successful - searching for a solution to a problem can be a frustrating experience if you don’t use the right search term(s) — which, of course, you don’t know yet at that stage…

@saintleningrad-prog said: Select text, or place the cursor inside a ^^…^^ tag, press Ctrl+Shift+E Just a head’s up: that’s the same default key combination that decodes HTML entities when HTML Tag is installed. Since plugin commands are mapped in alphabetical order, and the most recent mapping prevails, having both installed will silently block the EncTag’s plugin shortcut from functioning: [image: 1787355567929-enctags-v020-shortcut-conflict.png] One more thing: the text you are passing to the About message box (here) contains the literal Unicode character U+2013: EN DASH. Since the Unicode literal is inside a character string, the compiler interprets everything between "..." as if it were encoded in the operating system’s default, single-byte code page (usually Windows-1252 on English- or European-language PCs). When shown, the emdash becomes the string of nonsensical bytes \xe2\x80\x94: [image: 1787355726977-enctags-v020-mojibake.png] You just need to escape the Unicode literal, i.e., "Ctrl+Shift+E \u2013 ..."

@dcog989 Thanks for this - if you have any tweaks or updates you’ve made since this comment, let me know!

@Coises said: I expect that Version 0.6.5 will fix this. Noted, thanks again, and I’ll let him know — although he actually doesn’t typically use regex for his own purposes.

Search++ version 0.6.5 is available: Update to ICU 78.3 and use static linking for ICU. This is expected to fix problems some testers have had running Search++ on older systems or on minimal Windows installs (like Windows Sandbox). For most users there will be no functional difference between this version and version 0.6.4. Note: There are five icu——.dll files in older versions of Search++ that are not used beginning with version 0.6.5; so it is best to delete the existing Search++ folder (or its contents) before copying, rather than copying the new folder over the old one.

Since it’s essentially working at this point, I’ve renamed the Topic to “BETA” @mpheath , I have updated the README at https://github.com/pryrt/NppPlugin-HiddenLexers to enumerate available options I think I’ll be patient, and give the beta test a while longer, so won’t try to rush to release it before N++ v8.9.8’s PluginsAdmin list is finalized.

1.2.2 Syntax highlighting PowerShell Improved absolute, relative, quoted and unquoted paths colors [image: 1785402977913-paths.png] Improved variables interpolation colors [image: 1785402952228-interpolation.png] [image: 1785402954396-interpolation4.png] Added colors for expressions $(..), ${..} Added registry hives colors (HKLM, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, …) Fixed syntax highlighting Fixed variables colors inside paths and quotes Fixed excessive colors of variables, keywords, and functions enclosed in quotes Fixed unexpected sc.. and vk.. colors in AutoHotkey code Disabled colors for variables inside single quotes ' ' (because single quotes prevents var. interpolation)

@Coises You’re welcome, and thank YOU for promptly creating the new version, and for your plugins in general to begin with! The new one lets me exit without incurring any dialog.

@arnaud-derette said: I does not work in the operator 2 list either (or may be i need to do something more than just put § there ?) Like I said, because you want the § to not have spaces, like in parent§.D, it won’t work for you. § in operators 2 will only work if you can have spaces around the §

@rdipardo thank you for pointing that out. I will check and do the needful.

Thank you again for your help.

@chtaylo3 , You only need to post in the “Support for Plugins Admin & NppPluginList” topic if there’s a feature or bug with the Plugins Admin and the list DLL itself. If there are issues with your PR to add it to NppPluginList, those will be discussed in the PR itself – and it looks like yours has been accepted already. If you want to just announce your new plugin, you can just create a new Topic in the Plugin Category to tell us about it. Hence, I am moving your post to its own Topic. And congrats on creating a lexer plugin!

NppExec v0.8.12.1 has been released! Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the heroes! improved: now WarningAnalyzer automatically removes “” around a file path/name fixed: the Console Output Filters dialog did not clear WarningAnalyzer’s cache improved: now Highlight’s [I], [B], [U] have Italic, Bold and Underline style Get it here: https://github.com/d0vgan/nppexec/releases/tag/NppExec_v08121

@Michael-Vincent Thanks for the feedback ;) fixed with : https://github.com/gcyrillus/nppGitClone/releases/tag/V1.0.1

@Michael-Vincent and anyone reading :) Besides the jokes, i’d like some real feedback about the plugin, the code and mainly about the fact that gemini assisted me … Be critical without trolling, do not be afraid to point out all of the funny code, nonsense and incoherence that a light IA can bring within your code unless there is some goods in it . Good jokes are also welcome ;)
