Version 8.5.7 doesn't recognize some files with html ext
-
Notepad++ v. 8.5.7 doesn’t recognize new .html files on new system running MS Win 10. Correctly displays older html files. New files displayed without tags highlighted. Must be some parameter not set correctly. Any ideas?

New files
Have you tried saving the file, so that it knows what kind of file it is?
If you want all new files to start as HTML, you can set that in Preferences > New Documents , otherwise you have to manually tell Notepad++ what file type it is, either by saving or by using the Language menu
Actually, now I see that your title mentions .HTML extension… so check the Style Configurator for HTML: if it doesn’t list the four-lettee extension, you might have to add it to your user extensions. (I thought it was there by default, but maybe I’ve misremembered, or something got messed up in your installation)
