      @Michał-Łętowski Thanks. I mentioned that in my post, though maybe not prominently.

      This is being tracked on the “issues” forum. I should have posted there originally, but didn’t know better at the time.

        I think possibly here: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/12281

        IMO you posted in the correct place. This current thread is for (new) problems specifically with this release.

          why isn’t the setting:

          backup -> enable session snapshot and periodic backup

          remembered?

          every time i restart np++ i have to set this again.

            You’re probably using multiple instances. That setting is automatically turned off in a second instance. If you quit the first instance first, then quit the second instance, the settings of the second instance are remembered.

              indeed it works now with only one instance.

              cool, thanks @all

                Thank you for pointing out the real problem.

                NPPM_GETBOOKMARKID has been add in the master:
                https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/commit/4d5069280900ee249d358bc2b311bdb4b03f30a9

                and the new API will be available in the next release.

                cc: @Iton-Horn @mattesh @Alan-Kilborn @Michael-Vincent

                FYI, Mr. Dook has implied he will update the plugin when the new API is available (see here).

                  Revamp tab context menu #12147 removed lots of useful features.

                  The deal breaker is the removal of copy filename / directory name, full filename to clipboard. I use these on a daily basis, eg. #include “just_the_filename.h”

                    Not removed, but rather, moved into a submenu, so one extra click each use.

                    And there’s also the option of assigning the action(s) you care about most to shortcuts.

                      @Alan-Kilborn I agree, the feature is great, but try to print out the file, the output can be very hard to read. I turn this feature on and off. On when editing, and off when I need to print, then back on…

                        The change-history feature IS great, but it is new to Notepad++, and like a lot of new non-trivial features, it will have its share of minor troubles until it is mature. The currently-known issues with it are slated to be fixed with the release of 8.4.7.

                          @guy038 Is there a way to make that preference stick?

                          I turn off that option, then when I create a new document it’s on again. Wft

                          FYI, I don’t want to see it when I type. It’s not just about printing. It’s majorly distracting to me.

                              Is it safe to use Notepad++ in Russia? Don’t make political declaration, please just confirm “I am participating in warware” or “I am not”

                                I am just curious - what do you precisely mean by “safe”?

                                  It’s called “protestware”.

                                  The guy’s implying that Notepad++ could be booby-trapped with politically motivated exploit code.

                                  Don’t try to be cheeky with a troll; just point them to the Boycott Notepad++ topic next time.

                                      this may be a better version, for best performance, v8.3.3 is prone to crashes. I open about 30 tabs with core i7 gen 9 configuration and the speed is really slow. Hope that gets better with v8.4.6

                                        Version V8.4.6 is a real improvement in performance, I’ve only been using it for a few days but have less crashes than previous versions.

                                          @xomx there are some cases already. warware spoils reliability of Open Source.

                                            @rdipardo I’d call it “warware”, or maybe “vandalware” is better. I’m not calling to use/boycott Notepad++, I’m asking author. Not you.

                                            In case you can’t get it by yourself: writing a slogan to the user of the Notepad++ is a protest. Altering/destroying files is a vandalism and a crime. Spying is a crime.
