      Since I upgraded to 6.9.2 (minimalist package) Notepad++ crashes often, reducing the text I’m working on to 0 size.
      Using menus I have long time turned on backups - only to see there are no backups! Notepad++ has stopped producing backups some day in 2015. ???
      I have to change config.model.xml manually for backups to work.
      I downgraded to Notepad++ 6.9.1., still, the crashes persist.
      Any advice, please?

        I would recommand to try uninstall Notepad++, reboot the computer, verify there isn’t any files in all Notepad++'s folders (C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++, and %appdata%\Notepad++) and then reinstall it.
