Notepad++ 7.2.1 64bit on windows 10 home insider 14971.1000, doesn’t find the update. 7 and 7.2 64 bit also couldn’t find an update. 7.2.1 64 bit was cleanly installed after removing 7.2, reboot, registry cleaning.

Quote from the Notepad++ website:

Auto-updater will be triggered in few days if there’s no critical issue found.

I’m having the same problem with the “Still some pending actions” dialog that was in 7.2.1. If I click Yes, then GPUP crashes. I have done a full uninstall of 7.2.1 and then installed 7.2.2, but no luck.

Aaron Sherber · Nov 29, 2016, 2:46 AM

Update: If I click No and then update the plugin manager, the dialog stops appearing.

In Windows 10 when I click the right mouse button on any folder in the file explorer, there´s no item to create a new .txt file with Notepad++ in the contextual menu (Option New). Is it possible to add this item to the contextual menu options?

Is there a reason why the 7.2.2 NP++ comes installed with Plugin Manager 1.3.5 while the latest version seems to be 1.4.3?

Hi
Just updated to 7.2.2 and it seems I can’t see my network drives anymore. I have tried 64bit and 32bit but not able to open files on network drive.
Notepad++ v7.2.2 (64-bit)
Build time : Nov 27 2016 - 16:35:52
Path : C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
Admin mode : ON
Local Conf mode : OFF
OS : Windows 10
Plugins : mimeTools.dll NppConverter.dll
Is this a known bug and can this be solved ASAP?
Regards
Sasja

@donho I’m running the v7.2.2 (32-bit) version of NP++ and the changelog of this version says:

Included plugins:

NppExport v0.2.8 (32-bit x86 only)
Plugin Manager 1.3.5 (32-bit x86 only)
Converter 4.2
Mime Tool 2.1

But when I use ‘Show Plugin Manager’ it still wants to update to version 1.4.3 of the Plugin Manager so I still don’t understand why version 1.4.3 isn’t included? After updating the Plugin Manager it is now 1.4.3.

Sparktank · Dec 5, 2016, 9:46 PM

After upgrading to x64 version (during install it asked if I wanted to first uninstall x86 and I said yes), Windows 10 keeps asking what program I want to use to open .txt files.
I am the only user on the system and cannot set NP++ (x64) as default anymore.
Control Panel to change by extension doesn’t register, and changing by program doesn’t even show NP++ anywhere.
I have not rebooted since I installed the latest version. Last version I used that worked normally was 7.2.0.

I just updated to 7.2.2 on my Win10 64bit AMD PC. The first thing I noticed is that now when I open a Notepad++ associated file with a double-click when Notepad++ is open but minimized, Notepad++ will not “popup”. But when I manually pop up Notepad++, the file I double-clicked is open. This has quickly become an annoyance since I do this a lot and now I have to always pop up Notepad++ manually.

@donho 7.2.2 does not help to fix the 7.2 related “pending Actions bug”, still getting “gpup does not work anymore <Debug> <Close>”.
If I click on debug, it says “An unhandled win32 exception occured in gpup.exe [5356]” Visual Studio then tells: “Unhandled exception at 0x011E1E45 in gpup.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000000.”.

Debug info:

I’m having the same problems on 7.2.1 and 7.2.2. No updates available to Plugin manager 1.4.?. (Windows 8.1 Pro 32-bit)
So went back to 6.9, but still getting above problem with GPUP 1.3.5.0 , so went into Plugin Manager and this time on the Updates tab, I was able to update plugin manager to 1.4.3.0. Notepad++ is now working with v6.9 and Plugin Manager 1.4.3.0.
Dare I update to 7.2.2??

@sroe @Mike-Bussey242
Try to uninstall everything and do a fresh install.
Or chek in C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\updater files gpup.exe and GUP.exe. You must have thoses files : https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/tree/master/PowerEditor/bin/updater

Mike Bussey242 · Dec 12, 2016, 12:50 PM

@cmeriaux I have those files thank you. I would like to get to v7.2.2, but don’t have the time to keep installing and uninstalling. It works at the mo, so I’ll stick with that until I have time to mess about. This is the first time I have had a serious issue with NPP and I have been using it forever.

sroe · Dec 12, 2016, 1:15 PM

@cmeriaux that’s what I have done, I checked that the Folders are empty, and they were, so it should be gpup.exe from the installer, which is crashing on my System. As @Mike-Bussey242 wrote, in 6.9 everything is working fine.
