Dialogues like “File Open” or “Save As” do not open up at all when installed on Windows Server Core 2016, no issue with Server 2016 Core machines where 7.9.2 is still installed.

Ok, I’ll take a look once I get a VM for this OS version.

Which way do you use Notepad++? Do you have a desktop?
I’m not very familiar with Windows Server Core, but it seems that by default, it has no desktop GUI:

@kickapoo Here is an issue I’ve created: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/9621
Please, post any comments in that issue.

Thanks, yes, that´s right, Core Editions have no Desktop environment, you only have a commandprompt.

I use the 2016 Core image as it is in AWS EC2, additionally installing .NET 4.8 for testing my applications and also Chocolatey, which is also used to install npp (https://chocolatey.org/packages/notepadplusplus). Tried also downloading and installing manually, made no difference.

Npp is used for looking at log files, nothing fancy, started via commandprompt simply by typing notepad++.exe. Also the dialogue can be used for file operations to easier copy/move files between the vm and my local machine, as there is also no Windows file explorer like explorer.exe on board.

Note: On „regular“ notepad.exe that comes with Windows, those dialogues open without issues.

Re: Notepad++ v7.9.3 Released

View --> “Hide Line Number Margin” doesn’t work anymore. The line numbers stay visible, they don’t disappear. In my former version v7.9.1. it works.

Please solve this in v7.9.4. Until then I use v7.9.1.

View --> “Hide Line Number Margin”

AFAIK, there is no “Hide Line Number Margin” on the “View” menu.
So… don’t know what you’re talking about. The control for the line number margin is in Settings menu > Preferences… > Margins/Border/Edge and looks like this:

@Alan-Kilborn Yes, it exist:

It doesn’t work also in 7.3.2. See picture. I see the Line Numbers while I have selected View --> Hide Line Number Margin. In version 7.3.1. it works. It seems to be related to the new Line Number changes since 7.3.2.

There is no such menu entry in Npp

It must be part of a plugin. Can you post your debug info which
is available from the ? menu?

Hello, @geertsj, @alan-kilborn and All,

@geertsj, first, you said :

It doesn’t work also in 7.3.2. See picture. I see the Line Numbers while I have selected View --> Hide Line Number Margin. In version 7.3.1. it works. It seems to be related to the new Line Number changes since 7.3.2.

I suppose that you wanted to say :

It doesn’t work also in 7.9.2. See picture. I see the Line Numbers while I have selected View --> Hide Line Number Margin. In version 7.9.1. it works. It seems to be related to the new Line Number changes since 7.9.2.

Now, it’s definitively not an Notepad++'s issue

I think that, in each new release, you re-installed the CustomizeToolbar plugin. This is that plugin which adds the commands, below, inside the View menu !

Hide Line Numbers Margin
Hide Bookmark Margin
Hide Folder Margin

And probably, you added these three commands to your context menu !

And, as a new Margins/Border/Edge panel has been added to the Preferences dialog, since N++ v7.9.2, I suppose that you should contact the developer dave-user or create an issue here

Best Regards,

As @guy038 explained, the Customize Toolbar plugin is what is providing those three menu options. If they don’t work with the newest Notepad++ version, you will have to take it up with the Customize Toolbar author, as the fix needs to be in the plugin, not in Notepad++

Alan Kilborn

Does anybody else think that it is really dumb for a plugin called “Customize Toolbar” to modify the View menu in such a way?
