      I am using Astrogrep for text search on my files. I have set Notepad++ as my default editor in that program. Since a long time I had the problem that when I clicked a filename 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++.

      However, since my latest update (from 8.9.3.0 to 8.9.8.1) Notepad is still coming to the front but the file is no longer opened.

      Does anyone know what is happening here and how I can fix this situation?

        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.
