    TL;NR The update is triggered to v8.9.6.4. I just saw the reminder of @peterjones and triggered updater to v8.9.6.4 - when it’s done, I saw the report of “Regression in v8.9.6.4: Open File no longer resolves selected relative paths from current document directory” from @j-haley_otto. I didn’t yet validate (test) the regression personally, but I trust the confirmation from @xomx & @markusbodensee - it’s certainly a regression and we will fix it in the next release. From v8.9.3 to v8.9.6.4 we have fixed quite a lot of vulnerabilites (I recieved a lot of vulnerability reports these 2 months, thanks to AI maybe?), so let’s keep the ongoing update, which should be reliable. @pull_it_all Typo fixed. Thank you!

    @makeymalik , Longstanding known issue: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/8660 From what I understand from that Issue, it’s usually related to the OS display-scaling setting in High-DPI modes. There’s a volunteer who has been slowly working through the known DPI issues, but hasn’t gotten to this one

    I have a case that I think is different from the one described above. First of all, obviously, I can’t find the search results after searching. Activating the search result panel with F7, then hitting Alt, then hitting ‘down arrow’, shows the menu in the screenshot below. It is tied to a fixed place on the screen. Moving the np++ window will not affect the position of the appearing menu. Selecting ‘Close’ does not change anything as far as I can see. Selecting ‘Move’ gives me a move mouse pointer. When click + dragging, I believe I’m dragging something invisible. After moving the invisible panel, the next time the menu appears where I dropped it. While moving I can only se my mouse pointer, nothing else. Tried with different desktop background colors without any luck.

    @Václav-Hanzlik said: we have just found that function - “on selection - open file” does not working It works for me. I have a file called C:\usr\local\apps\npp\npp.8.9.6.4.portable.x64\license.txt If I have that text selected in Notepad++ v8.9.6.4, and do Edit > On Selection > Open File, it opens the license file. Can you show an example that doesn’t work, including a screenshot showing the exact selection, along with a directory listing proving you have that file? Like I provide below: [image: 1780930957505-6758db40-8aaf-474c-a415-9a3e1a2597cf-image.jpeg] C:\usr\local\apps\npp\npp.8.9.6.4.portable.x64>dir *.txt Volume in drive C is OS Volume Serial Number is AA11-1111 Directory of C:\usr\local\apps\npp\npp.8.9.6.4.portable.x64 01/29/2026 07:34 PM 35,500 license.txt 01/29/2026 07:34 PM 1,526 readme.txt 2 File(s) 37,026 bytes 0 Dir(s) 445,432,713,216 bytes free
