Something got changed, how do I revert it

@romanml71 I would seriously suspect XBrackets !!

I mean, c’mon, low-hanging fruit is the easiest to pick, right !! :-)

I did. It says plugin is not active. Sadly the behaviour still exists. I’ve actually also un-installed it and still. :(

I would do the following,

stop npp
rename the following directories in your
%APPDATA%\notepad++\plugins directory
NppCalc -> NO_NppCalc
XBrackets -> NO_XBrackets
combine -> NO_combine
start npp and see if it still is an issue.
If so, go on with the procedure until you find the plugin causing it.

mimeTools, NppConverter, NppExport are standard one which I think
aren’t problematic. I use ComparePlugin as well and don’t have the issue.

Hmmm, maybe disable ALL plugins and give it another try?

Thank you! I’ll start testing this. Appreciate your input very much!

Hi people:

It sounds as something the NPPCalc plugin could do.

@astrosofista Thank you! and all others as well, Thank you! This was it. I’ve renamed nppcalc.dll to NO_nppcalc.dll and behaviour stopped! Yes!
Interestingly enough. My plugins are in two places on my machine.

C:\Users\xxxxx\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\plugins

and here

C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\plugins

However, not all plugins are in both places. nppcalc.dll was only in C:\ProgramFiles(x86)…

This community is the best!!!

Ultimately, inside the Plugins\NppCalc menu path, Active Calc option was enabled. The keyboard shortcut for that Ctrl+Shift+C.
Not impossible to accidentally hit that key combo. Which must be what I’ve done.
Thanks again to all for your insight and help!

I guess this could be if some older installation was updated with a much newer version.
My understand it is that as long as Local Conf mode : OFF is set,
the configuration, plugins … will be read from %APPDATA% and in case
of Local Conf mode : ON npp is looking to the directories next to its executable.
