      By default the plugin note in Notepad plus,
      save’s notes with the name of the user, time/date and .note file extension
      to a temp folder located in C:\Users(users-name)\AppData\Local\Temp.
      I didn’t want these time-stamped notes saved at this location
      and was somewhat confounded as to how to set a different location to save these notes.
      Then I discovered this:
      Click on plugins
      Click on take notes
      Click on options and update where you want notes to be stored.
      So it turns out to be very simple, just a little elusive,
      it would be handy if this setting was available in settings and preferences.

        Plugins don’t (and can’t) use the normal Notepad++ Preferences UI.

        just a little elusive

        TBH, not at all
