Your images show you seem to be running NPP as administrator. That could be the source of your problem.

Read this thread, there might be the solution.

@PeterJones said in ascii nfo sh problem dos2unix is required to fix the bash files!:

my guess is that it was v8.7.4 that changed that behavior.

Yep. If I have the cp437.nfo, if I open it in fresh (default options) for v8.7.3, it automatically opens it in OEM-US = CP437, and it looks right; if I open it in fresh v8.7.4, it autodetects as EUC-KR. Similarly, if I have the utf8.nfo, v8.7.4-and-newer will interpret it as UTF-8 bytes, so it is right… but if I open utf8.nfo in v8.7.3, it will open it as CP437, so it looks like junk.

Updated linter++ to v1.0.2

This has mostly been concerned with changes to the dockable window with the results:

There’ve also been a few other minor improvements/fixes - see the Changes.md file

Downloadable from https://github.com/ThosRTanner/notepad-pp-linter/releases if you can’t wait for the plugin list to be updated.

@deleelee said in Notepad++ 8.8.8: 2 issues detected:

So I guess it’s a decision between wanting shell icons on tabs or an unsaved changes indicator.

or the 3rd option - as I said, create new MenuIcons plugin GitHub issue and its author most likely fixes it and publishes a new compatible version

@xomx After restarting our Samba instance, the issues appear to be resolved. Apologies for the false alarm, but thank you for the responses!

I have noticed going from the executable to the MSI, when installing from Intune, that remnents of the old version get left behind. 2025-12-18_12-23-57.png

Also, when we deployed 8.8.8 and the program updates to 8.8.9 that it doesn’t clean up and you see two versions.2025-12-18_12-06-12.png

These are registry entries which should have been cleaned up in both events. I probably should have stuck with the original executable. 😕

@Wolfgang-Grafeneder ,

Read Find Text Copied From Excel Cell and the issue(s) it links to, as there was an entire recent discussion on this.

@Terry-R
Thanks for letting me know.

@Terry-R This is very helpful and I was unaware of that issue. Thank you. Based on dates, it looks like I was using 8.8.5. It seems likely, especially the description of removing the structure around the installation.

Hello @offshore9521 and All,

Humm…, @offshore9521, there are two separate problems with your regex !

From your INPUT text :

Your regex (?<![\.\!\?])\r\n([a-z]) means :

If a \r\n sequence, followed with a letter (a through z), is not preceded by :

A dot

An exclamation mark

An interrogation mark

Then rewrite this letter

BTW, you can shorter this regex as (?<![.!?])\r\n([a-z])

But, the ’ character is not a character of the [.!?] list. Thus, this explains why your regex merges the lines 1 and 2

Now, I suppose that your true goal was : if a line is not a true sentence, then merge that line with the next one with a space character ? This lead to the following regex S/R :

FIND (?<![.!?’])\r\n(?=\w)

REPLACE \x20

So, any \r\n sequence, which respects the before and after conditions, is simply replaced with a space character

Notes :

As you see, I included the ’ character within the list of the forbidden chars, in the negative look-behind

I used \w, which is identical to the [\u\l\d_] class character, instead of [a-z] to not bother about case !

Remark :

FIND (?<![.!?’\r\n])\R(?=\w)

REPLACE \x20

Best Regards,

guy038

P.S. : As an exercice, try to understand why the following regex S/R does not work as expected :

FIND (?<![.!?’])\R(?=\w)

REPLACE \x20

To help you, don’t forget to click on the ¶ icon of the Toolbar !

Hi @Clicketyclick,
I’ve updated DoxyIt and tested it on my x64 machine.
Please give it a try: https://github.com/AN-2101/DoxyIt/releases/tag/v0.4.5

@prof-tech said in Can't get the old toolbar:

Help! I have tried everything to get the old toolbar and it doesn’t appear! can anyone help me?

Settings > Prefernces > Toolbar: the “Fluent UI” variants are the “new toolbar” and “standard icons: small” are the “old toolbar” (and the “Hide” checkbox turns it on and off)

@Alan-Kilborn said in 'Find in Files' doesn't appear to work:

If a folder doesn’t exist, I think when the search is initiated, input focus will immediately jump to the Directory: box, signaling a problem with that folder to the user (without a message box). Not on a PC right now, so can’t verify; going from memory.

I see you are correct. However… I also see that the search results show 0 files searched. So I don’t see how it could be a problem with what is in the Find box. The directory might exist, but not be the one OP meant to search.

Hello, @brenda-gross-0 and All,

Very easy with regexes !

Open the Replace dialog ( Ctrl + H )

Un-tick all box options

FIND (?-i)(?<=\l)(?=\u)|_

REPLACE \x20

Tick the Wrap around option

Select the Regular expression search mode

Click, once only, on the Replace All button

Voila !

Notes :

The leading part (?-i) is an in-line modifier which force to take care about the case of letters, meaning non-insensitive search !

Then, due to the alternation symbol |, two individual regexes are performed, simultaneously :

(?<=\l)(?=\u) which searches for an empty string between a lower-case letter and an upper-case letter

_ which simply searches for the underline character

In both cases, the replacement changes the regex search with an normal space character \x20. I could have chosen to type a single space char, instead !

The regex search may also be expressed as a non-capturing group : (?-i:(?<=\l)(?=\u)|_), with the leading non-insensitive option

Best Regards,

guy038

@Charles-Fraichot

Glad you found a good solution. Thanks for letting us know.
