      v 7.9.2

      Sometimes when I open Notepad it opens many saved and open files that were not there last time I closed it.

      Any ideas would be much appreciated.

      Michael

        Hello Michael,

        the first thing which confuses me is the version you posted as the current release is 6.9 !?
        Do you have exclusive access to this program or in other words is it possible that the configuration
        gets shared? Something like you run this on a terminal server with other users or from a network share ?

        Cheers
        Claudia

          Well if I check the version it says: Notepad++ v6 .7.9.2
          Sorry if I gave the build and not the version.
          Build time June 22 2015
          Thanks for responding.
          I work on a standalone computer and nobody else is involved with it.

            Didn’t find any reported issue like the one you’ve described.
            Next time this happens, can you check the content of session.xml?
            This is the file which is used to “remember” about the file which needs to be opened on startup.

            Cheers

              Thanks and I will do it and come back here.

              It doesn’t happen every time but just every few days but it’s a little pain.

                It just did it again but can’t find the session.xml.

                Where is it located, Windows 10 ?

                Thanks

                  Thanks

                    If this is the content of your session.xml, than something terrible happened as this should be the content of config.xml.
                    Do you mind double checking?

                    Cheers
