      Whenever I type in notepad++ this white box or prompt or whatever appears underneath my text. It seems to do this for each letter I type, causing the typing to be slow and badly delayed. Did I accidentally hit some command or keybind? How can I disable this so I’m actually able to use notepad? Thanks.

        Hard to tell from just a textual description, but maybe it is the Autocomplete box? Try turning Autocomplete off in the Preferences.

          Will,

          Sounds like you have autocomplete turned on:

          Preferences -> Auto Completion

            FYI: here is the auto-completion settings documentation

              @Alan-Kilborn Thanks! Sorry if this was a stupid issue but I’m fairly inexperienced. I appreciate the help.
