<![CDATA[Settings folders everywhere]]>Hi,

I’m using Notepad++ V6.7.9.2 and recently noticed that config folders have started appearing everywhere. I’m not exactly sure what the trigger is as it doesn’t happen all of the time, but sometimes when I double-click to open a file, a Notepad++ folder is created in the same directory, containing the config, contextMenu, langs, shortcuts and stylers xml files.

Has anyone else noticed this behaviour or do I just have some odd configuration settings somewhere?

Cheers,
Charles

Yes, I did have the cloud option turned on, and for some reason the Google Drive option has become disabled (greyed out). I have Google Drive installed so I’m not entirely sure why that has happened.

Switching the could settings to ‘No Cloud’ stops the folder being created.

Thanks,
Charles

Are you running with the settings in the cloud? If so, does the problem still occur if you turn it off (Settings -> Preferences -> Cloud -> No cloud, and then restart)?
