I can’t see this accidentally happening, but if somehow Shift+[ got tied (in Shortcut Mapper) to a function that often seems to do nothing when you invoke it??

didnt find anything there. I even reinstaled app and reset all the settings but it didnt help…

Have you tried rebooting?
My best guess is either you’ve got some other app running that’s highjacking keystrokes (intentionally or otherwise), or that a plugin is highjacking keystrokes.
If you reboot and launch windows in safe mode, with Notepad++ run from command line or Windows Run dialog with the
c:\program files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe -noPlugin
option (using correct path notepad++ executable), does it still have the problem?It might be helpful if you provided us the output of the ? > Debug Info menu (you can click on the copy-to-clipboard link, and paste it in a reply: that will give us your exact version of Notepad++ and environment, along with the list of active plugins.

could it be that you have more than one keyboard input language installed and
by accident this is changed during notepad++ editing?Eko
