    There is no other way to associate files from NP++ Preferences only if you start the app with Admin rights?

      I’m using Win 7 64-bit. I have NP++ 64-bit. The file association using the Notepad menu (Settings -> Preferences…-> File Association) works only if I run Notepad as Administrator. This is the only way to do it from the settings?

            Well, it doesn’t look good as (a) that pull request is from 2018 and (b) it is a closed pull request.
