      Has there been a change on how notepad++ retains files that are on a server (linux) are retained after closing it down and dropping the connection to the server?

      I upgrade regularly to the latest version. Recently when I log in in the morning files that I was editing over on a linux box no longer are in a tab. When I accidentally left a file unsaved overnight - it was still in its tab but when I tried to save it I was offered a folder on my PC instead of saving the file in its folder on the linux box.

      Is there a setting that I need to make?

      BTW fantastic editor … I could not do without it…

        Hello @Allan-Biggs,

        this is a normal behaviour, even for files on the local pc.
        When the “original” file can’t be accessd anymore npp asks whether it should
        save it anyway.

        Cheers
        Claudia

          At the point that it asked me where to save the file the network connection was re-established
