      @Claudia-Svenson If this is something you do many times, you can record it as a macro. Start with the text selected Press Macro|Start Recording Do the sequence up to after the paste ( Coises’ steps 2-5 ) Press Macro|Stop Recording Press Macro|Save Current Recorded Macro From this point you can just select the text and press the macro either from the macro menu or from your shortcut. Edit: After some testing, it seems the encoding change does not get saved in the macro as I expected, maybe there is some other way to change encoding to make the action saved in the macro.

      @donho In my environment the fix for truncated OVR indicator on Status bar (25.) still has a little bit to less space reserved; it is still truncated. Changing the screen resolution changes the behaviour: with smaller resolution the text is displayed completely, but not with higher resolution: Resolution 1920x1200, scaling 150% [image: 1783367320620-0fe38c6a-5798-4343-8797-31015b51efd4-image.jpeg] [image: 1783367327490-bf1e0504-f2da-4951-bcb5-c70658919a01-image.jpeg] Resolution 1440x900, scaling 100% [image: 1783367292449-d61946e9-432e-4f8e-b00a-5d86e4e8d75b-image.jpeg] [image: 1783367300756-11461042-c586-4dce-9532-ecf7cdc554b8-image.jpeg] Debug Info: Notepad++ v8.9.7 (64-bit) Build time: Jul 6 2026 - 17:51:01 Scintilla/Lexilla included: 5.6.3/5.5.0 Boost Regex included: 1_90 pugixml included: 1.16 nlohmann JSON included: 3.12.0 Path: C:\Users\Public\LocalApp\Notepad++\notepad++.exe Command Line: Admin mode: OFF Local Conf mode: OFF Cloud Config: OFF WinGUp: absent disableNppAutoUpdate.xml: present Periodic Backup: OFF Placeholders: OFF Scintilla Rendering Mode: SC_TECHNOLOGY_DEFAULT (0) Multi-instance Mode: monoInst asNotepad: OFF File Status Auto-Detection: cdEnabledNew (for current file/tab only) Dark Mode: OFF Display Info: primary monitor: 1920x1200, scaling 150% -> OVR still a little bit truncated primary monitor: 1440x900, scaling 100% -> OVR displayed completely visible monitors count: 1 installed Display Class adapters: 0000: Description - Intel® Graphics 0000: DriverVersion - 32.0.101.8724 OS Name: Windows 11 Pro (64-bit) OS Version: 25H2 OS Build: 26200.8655 Current ANSI codepage: 1252 Plugins: ComparePlugin (2.0.2) DSpellCheck (1.5) JSMinNPP (25.11.16) MarkdownViewerPlusPlus (0.8.2) mimeTools (3.1) NppConverter (4.7) NppExport (0.4) NPPJSONViewer (2.1.1) PoorMansTSqlFormatterNppPlugin (1.6.13.31508) XMLTools (3.1.1.13)

      @Sylvester-Bullitt , Release Candidate is available. You probably want to test this version, and report any continued problems with the Open File feature ASAP.
