      Where are macros stored? Just installed Notepad++ on new computer. I’d like to go back to the old computer and retrieve my macros.

          Hello Bob,

          Depending of your N++ installation, the shortcuts.xml file, which contains a Macros section, should be located :

          • in the %AppData%\Roaming\Notepad++ folder, if you used the installer ( the npp.x.x.x.Installer.exe file )

          • in the same folder than you copy the Notepad++.exe file, if you used a ZIP or 7Z archive ( the npp.x.x.x.bin.zip or npp.x.x.x.bin.7z files )

          Cheers,

          guy038
