I wish I could type in the file location in the "open file" dialog
-
Specifically, opening the hosts file. The “etc” folder is hidden, so there is no way to open the file via notepad++'s “open” dialog. Other programs allow you to type in the location - I wish notepad++ would allow this

Have a look at
(menu) Settings -> Preferences... -> Default Directory -> Use new style dialog. -
There is a FAQ entry for that with screenshots, see https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/15743/faq-desk-file-extension-issue-file-open-save-dialogs
