          Fixed now - Thank you for the heads up.

          It should be OK now.

            Maybe a dumb question, but the size of the installer grew from 3.007 kB for 7.5.1 to 4.165 kB for 7.5.2. WinGup’s release only grew from 331 to 381 kB and I can’t see any other major changes. Could you elaborate where this increase of size came from?

              The DSpellCheck.dll plugin (along with the necessary English dictionary files) were re-added as a default Npp plugin. Nearly all of the increased size in this release is attributed to this change.

                I got an error message on install saying that it failed to register the notepad++ extension properly (Nppshell.dll) and that I would manually have to move it into the install folder to be able to use the context menu. Context menu worked fine anyways, though. Never had this happen with any other versions; I uninstalled in case something got fudged along the way but it seemed to be working fine.

                    @Neurosis I’m getting the same error which is causing any silent installs I want to do to blow up.

                      The About Notepad++ says it is 7.5.1 even though the release is 7.5.2. Was this intentional?

                        Looks fine to me. You might have multiple versions installed.

                          can you describe the error in detail?
                          a friend of mine said the same thing, but it worked for me.
                          i wonder if it matters if it was 32 bit or 64 bit.

                            Installed latest version ok but Comodo Internet Security is flagging the Uninstaller.exe as Malware.

                              @Ryan-Trunten I tried both versions yesterday and got the same error. On a clean install (system that never had Notepad++ on it before) it works fine with no errors but on an upgrade/reinstall it pops up with a message right at the end of the install process that says this: “To register the Notepad++ shell extensions properly, place NppShell.dll in the same directory as the Notepad++ executable.” with an OK button.

                              Like @Neurosis said, the program works fine but it’s throwing errors on our installer.

                                I just downloaded “npp.Installer.exe” from Filehippo. My downloader automatically runs Malwarebytes, and it reported a trojan: “Trojan.FakeNPP”.

                                To check, I then downloaded it from this web site and got the same binary file and the same trojan reported by Malwarebytes.

                                Is this a fake trojan or a fake NPP?

                                What is going on?

                                  @Mike-Horton Interesting. Mine updated from the previous versions just fine.
                                  Curious if finding and moving that file it mentions would do anything.

                                    Are the themes not included in this release? I see that the option is checked but I don’t see them anywhere. I’ve tried installing and running as Admin as well as not using APPDATA. This happens with both the 32 and 64 bit versions.

                                      OK, so nobody at Notepad++ is bothered about a possible trojan?

                                          There is an regression in this release. Not only themes, but localization is also missing. Fix has been submitted and @donho has to review. Hopefully will be available in next release again.

                                            I confirm error “To register the Notepad++ shell extensions properly, place NppShell.dll in the same directory as the Notepad++ executable.” is also a regression.

                                            Root cause for both the errors (shell dlll and missing themes) is same. There was an execution order issue in the nsis script.
