<![CDATA[Anyone know the latest version that runs on Windows 98?]]>I have to run a very old compiler in a Windows 98 virtual box. It has notepad++ 5.0 installed. Does anyone know what the newest version is that will run in my environment?
Thanks,
Lloyd

According to https://notepad-plus-plus.org/news/notepad-5.9.1-release-is-available.html, “As a result Notepad++ future releases won’t be supported under Windows 98/ME environments, since VS2010 cannot be used to target Win9X.” I believe that means that 5.9.1 should work Win98.

If you’d rather use a more modern Notepad++, I might recommend installing the most recent NPP on your host machine, and use the NppFTP plugin (also available thru plugin manager) to “remotely” edit the files on your virtual box.

from compiler point of view I assume this one.
https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v7.2.1.html
As 7.2.2 dropped VS2005
