Notepad++ 6.8.6 wont ask me to save, if change were made

Bakasomasu · Dec 7, 2015, 2:45 PM

When i write something down without and close the whole programm (without saving) it wont ask me to save the file. And thats the problem.
But if i only close one tab (without saving) the pop up appears and ask me to save the file before. This works with no problem.

Can anybody help? Thanks!

Solution

You have to go on Settings -> Prefferences --> Backup --> Remove “Enable session snapshot and preiodic backup”

Now I’m looking for how to make the change for all users. I didn’t find anything in the registry.

Hello Bakasomasu,

within config.xml you will find a line like

<GUIConfig name="Backup" action="0" useCustumDir="no" dir="" isSnapshotMode="no" snapshotBackupTiming="7000" />

the isSnapshotMode attribute is the one you are looking for.

Cheers
Claudia
