Is there a way to retrieve 'temporary' files after closing?
-
I had a bunch that for some reason I got into a habit of not saving (since it retains the texts even if it crashes I thought why not…) - and, for some reason, they disappeared today… like, only a blank ‘new 1’ was there… is there some place it stores such ‘cache’…?

I guess you discovered why that was a bad idea.
Try looking in the Notepad++ folder under the “backup” folder.

%appdata%\notepad++\backupis the default location but you can change it it in the settings. -

This is not always the case, but is the normal case.
but you can change it it in the settings.
I don’t believe you can; in the settings it appears greyed/disabled; thus, it shows you the location, but doesn’t allow you to set a different one.
