@musicpanda @musicpanda said: I got an error popup “Authenticode check failed: signature or signing certificate are not recognized”. That was not really a problem: I just clicked the message away and the file opened in Notepad++. Weird - in the past (pre v8.0 N++ versions), when N++ was showing that security message, it then couldn’t continue and quit (that was a msg used for checking of the dynamically loaded Scintilla SciLexer.dll). to 8.9.8.1) Notepad is still coming to the front but the file is no longer opened. Are you using a shortened notepad++.exe file path in the AstroGrep settings? I mean e.g. C:\Progra~\Notepad++\Notepad++.exe . If so, just upgrade to the latest v8.9.9.1, where that thing is fixed.

@PeterJones said: See https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/nppShell/issues/79 Well… I spoke too soon. The duplicate menu entry disappeared after I applied the suggested fix, but sometime later it reappeared. Not sure what’s going on and I don’t have time to tackle this right now, but will get back to it tomorrow.
