      I’ve been having an issue in recent weeks (maybe 2-3 months). When I’m typing within a Notepad++ tab, I’m hitting something that immediately moves my cursor to the first tab. So I’m typing my little heart out, then I’m suddenly typing in the middle of the wrong document.

      I dug through every menu and shortcut setting I could find, twice, then again - just to be sure. So far I’m unable to find the setting, but frustration is mounting as I’m now in a cast and typing is even more difficult than usual. :/

        Is it possible you are hitting Ctrl-(numpad 1). If you look under Settings, Shortcut Mapper, and down around halfway, possibly #150 I have 1st Tab (my setting is Ctrl-numpad 1). This hotkey can be adjusted to another combination or cleared, so it doesn’t occur at all.

        When I tried it I immediately moved to the 1st tab, and then I started typing it was at the start of that tab.

          Thanks! It’s very unlikely because of where my CTRL key and number pads are. And it always goes to the first tab (e.g. ctrl-1). It’s happening during standard word-based typing.
