      Great program, never had any problems, but after Notepad++ updating to v8.4.2, an error was given: plugin GedcomLexer is not compatible. Remove automatically --> Yes.
      But on every start the error message reappears although the plugin is no longer selected in ‘Plugins’.
      After updating Notepad++ to v8.4.4, the same error comes on every start.

      Can you please check and repair this error?
      Many thanks, Ar

        @Arman-2 ,

        Depending on the permissions on the c:\program files\notepad++\plugins\ folder hierarchy (or equivalent), Notepad++ may try to remove the old GedcomLexer plugin, but not be successful. Your options at this point are 1) to right-click on Notepad++.exe and Run as Administrator, and see if that will allow it to fully uninstall the incompatible plugin; or 2) to delete the c:\program files\notepad++\plugins\Gedcom (or equivalent)

        And it appears that a new version of GedcomLexer has been released which you can manually download and install, to make it compatible with Notepad++ v8.4-and-newer.
