      Weirdly, it appears to be working here now too. Nothing changed here except for closing Notepad++ earlier, and then just re-opened it now! (I was re-opening it with a view to trying it without Compare installed, But it was already working for me now before I managed to remove Compare plugin.). Therefore assume it is sorted… but I’ll report back of I see any repeat, or I narrow it down further.

        I found a regression introduced in V8.0.
        Mark all feature is no longer configurable through “find dialog settings”. It was wery convenient to configure it through “find dialod settings”, in a same way like smart highlighting.
        Please consider to set it back.

          I think in my following the issues I saw that it was a design decision to do it the way it was changed. Of course this is not saying it can’t be changed again.

            By the way, does anybody remember the issue in scope of which it was changes? I’m just curious.

              Here is the pull request, it appears multiple “issues” were driving it: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/pull/9796

                Latest version doesn’t work properly. Old version was better…

                  Instead of vague complaining, please give concrete examples of how the behavior has changed, and why you think it worked better before.

                    Still a problem with losing some settings if installing with elevated user rights for a limited user.
                    At least open files in session and histroy of opened files is lost.

                    This worked until 7.9.5 very clean.

                        Save of existing file works, but saving a new file or Save As of any file is unresponsive once you get to the Save dialogue box. Can’t enter a file name or get Save button to work.

                          @David-Sperduto Running Vista Home Premium SP2 if that’s relevant.

                            @David-Sperduto I’m afraid fixes for bugs that are specific to Windows Vista won’t be accepted. Please refer to this page about supported versions: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/blob/master/SUPPORTED_SYSTEM.md
                            I’d recommend you to use an older version of Notepad++.

                              @mere-human It’s a critical issue. Does Vista’s runtime system not support at all our new Save dialog? Or there’s a way (not restoring the old system) to fix it?

                                FYI:
                                Auto-updating to v8.1.2 is triggered.

                                  @donho I can’t say for sure. I need a Vista on VM to take a look.

                                    Let’s see if there are others Vista users have the same problem before getting into it.

                                    @David-Sperduto Could you create an issue on GitHube please :

                                      I have Vista Enterprise in a VM and tested Save As. As @David-Sperduto wrote, I was not able to input a new filename, the dialog just hangs. Same with Save a copy as.

                                        I need a local VM to understand what’s going on.
                                        I was expecting the modern File Dialog to work fine on Vista since MS says that in the doc:
                                        https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/dlgbox/open-and-save-as-dialog-boxes

                                        [Starting with Windows Vista, the Open and Save As common dialog boxes have been superseded by the Common Item Dialog. We recommended that you use the Common Item Dialog API instead of these dialog boxes from the Common Dialog Box Library.]

                                          So here is the video from Vista VM. I type into the file name edit box, but nothing happens.

                                            I can take a look at the problem and try several things if someone creates an issue on GitHub.
                                            But I won’t promise anything.
                                            I’m not able to hook up a remote debugger to Vista VM (it works fine with Win 7 VM).
