welcome to the notepad++ community, @Hassan-Dehghani

notepad++ should run without problems on ubuntu 18.04.2, if notepad++ 7.6.6 is installed from the ubuntu software center.

please try uninstalling notepad++.
if it has been installed at the ubuntu software center, you can remove it from there.
for other uninstallation options, you will have to follow the guide you used to install notepad++.
to re-install notepad++, open ubuntu software center, search for notepad++, select notepad-plus-plus from the search results, and press install, as seen at the screenshot below.
