      After a a freeze up and crash, I had to do a hard shut down. When I restarted, all my open tabs were gone. When I reopened them, I noticed my font size and style were off, and now I can’t change them. Leaving me stuck with ridiculously small font size. At least, not through Settings > Style Configurator. Is there any other way to change font style & size? I even tried installing the program over it.

        could it be that this is just a zoom issue?
        Menu View->Zoom->Restore default zoom.

        Cheers

          No that didn’t fix things. But increasing the zoom helps the size issue at least.

            did you try a different font also? Maybe the crash corrupted the font itself.
            Assuming you have a “standard” npp installation you should have a notepad++
            directory under %APPDATA%, (as previously reported it could be also under
            %APPDATA%\Roaming and/or %APPDATA\local). Try to rename it and start npp afterwards.
            It will recreate the directory with the standard settings.

            Cheers

              Sorry this post is late, but perhaps may help others.

              Under Settings->Style Configurator

              Select language: Global Styles and default style. Check your font name and size there.
