@donho
Downloaded “Notepad++ Installer 64-bit” from your site.Run the installer like normal but I change my destination from “C:\Program Files\Notepad++” to “C:\Programs\Notepad++” , then I leave it as “Custom” which is everything but localization/auto-updater, and finally check “Don’t use %Appdata%” then hit install button.
Folder gets created in "C:\Users\NAME\AppData\Local\Notepad++” which NP++ is launched, if I delete the fold it gets recreated when NP++ gets launched again. This has been happening since v7.5.0, never happened with 7.4.X and below for me. I’ve been using NP++ for years and have been upgrading my versions this way the same way all this time. So I’m not sure what I’m doing different this time.

@zgz It does work for me (session opened with the modified change) after restart Windows 10 and relaunching Notepad++ v7.5.1

Add auto-completion support for batch file (*.bat).
Does this work also for *.cmd batch files?

Fix the bug that Notepad++ create “%APPDATA%\local\notepad++” folder in local conf mode.
This is still happening for me, an empty Notepad++ folder being created every time Notepadd++ is launched at “C:\Users\NAME\AppData\Local\Notepad++”I confirm. It still happening for me too.

Build time : Aug 29 2017 - 02:38:44

Path : C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
If the path is Path :
C:\Program Files\then you are not in local conf mode, then%appdata%\local\Notepad++\will be create on notepad++'s launch (just like%appdata%\Notepad++\).
So it’s a nomal behaviour. -
What about me then, I’m installed in “C:\ Programs \Notepad++” and have doLocalConf.xml file in directory.
Also what is even the point of this Local folder? There is nothing inside of it, the Roaming Notepad++ folder is where all the settings are kept for non-portable installs, Local is literally just empty creating garbage.

@ImSpecial
could you please check if your c:\notepad++ folder has full write permissions for your current username or the group “users” ?if you need a template to know which security settings will work, just create a new empty folder on your desktop > right click on it > properties > security >>>
compare these security settings with the security settings of your custom notepad++ folder -
@ImSpecial
I’ve replied you 2 days ago.
Please check the message above.
I cannot reproduce your problem, and without your debug information, I can do nothing about. -
@donho
I’ll try and get you those as soon as I can, meanwhile can you comment on what the purpose of the folder is for?There are two Notepad++ folders, the “new” empty one that came with version 7.5.0 located at;
“C:\Users\NAME\AppData\Local\Notepad++”and the second one which is located at;
“C:\Users\NAME\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++”where the settings are stored.
-
settings are stored in appData/Roaming/Notepad++/config.xml
-
I know, that’s what I said, what about the Local\Notepad++ folder? Whats stored in there?
-
Unfortunately I still can’t load big logs to notepad++ 7.5 64bit.
For example log file size is 8GB and everytime I try to load it using right mouse click and “Edit with Notepad++” option, everytime I get “File size problem” window with message “File is too big to be opened by notepad++”
Any chance for fixing this in the incoming releases ?greets from Poland

Having an issue I have not had in previous releases. Loading 32 or 64bit of the 7.5.1 I have a non-English language for install. Google translate says it is “Afrikaans” or “Dutch” I don’t have this issue on other programs. my default language is English. I downloaded the English version. is it an installer problem ?

@ImSpecial “C:\Programs” is generally reserved for special installs AFIK and is usually NOT where you should install ANY software yourself. This could be the whole source of your problem. I highly recommend getting used to installing to “C:\Program Files” (for 64 bit software on a 64 bit version of Windows, or for 32 bit software on 32 bit Windows, for 32 bit software on Windows use “C:\Program Files (x86)”. If you want a specific non-protected install folder use a path other than “C:\Programs” (“C:\Programs” AND “C:\Program Files” both have special permissions. Under normal circumstances installing to “C:\Progam Files” should work fine, the only real drawback (that I know of) is that if you want to modify files in any of its subfolders you need to have Administrator privileges, using a folder other than “C:\Program Files” OR “C:\Programs” should remove that limitation, but as I said “C:\Programs” is not where you should install your software because that’s where Windows puts special files related to things like Windows Store Apps and such).

- Add a spiritual quote.
Where would I find the spiritual quote in this update? :D

Past versions of NPP have allowed a file to be saved using the “Save As…” command without changing its file name (i.e. works identically to the “Save” command but with the confirm file save dialog box, which is consistent with every other Windows app). In NPP 7.5.1, doing a “Save As…” without changing the file name gives an error that the file is already open in NPP and does not allow the file to be saved.
Please fix. Thanks.

start np++ with the argument -qnrandom to get a random quote every time you launch np++eg:
notepad++.exe -qnrandom
