      I created a JavaScript file, told NPP that it was a JavaScript file (via the Language menu), saved it with a .js extension and closed it. When I reopened the same file, I have to set the Language again.

      How can I automate this?

        check if another language has occupied the .js extension.
        Either use the Dialog Settings->Style Configurator and step through the languages
        or open langs.xml and see which language uses the extension.

        Cheers
