XML tools plugin slows down start of notepad++ a lot

Johannes Fleck

I am using np++ version 6.8.8 with latest version of xml tools plugin.
As soon as plugin is installed the startup time of notepad++ is about 15 seconds. (with no session to restore).

Any workaround for this?

Thanks

Hello @Johannes-Fleck,

that is strange, on my very very very old laptop
Intel Pentium M 1,5 Ghz 1GB RAM it takes
1,6 seconds to start npp with xml tools.

Do you know sysinternals process monitor?
Run it, define notepad++.exe as filter, start npp and you should see
what is causing the issue.

Cheers
Claudia
