    When I start NP++, it creates a process, but when I exit NP++ it stays there and is not removed. If I start another instance of NP++, I get another process start. I can continue and I could have many instances of NP++ process in memory.

    If I have the document map showing, with many processes in memory still, I will see a faint outline of the document map showing on my desktop still, after NP++ closes, until I close all of the running processes.

    I have the settings set as follows;

    • I don’t have the auto update enabled
    • Mono instance set
    • Minimise to system tray is NOT set

    I don’t remember it doing this before. Does anyone else have this problem?

      @Vasilis-Serghi said in NP process still active when closed:

      DSpellCheck.dl

      There was an issue when using a DSpellVersion < 1.4.4,
      could this be your issue as well?

        NppMenuSearch.dll

        in my case remove NppMenuSearch plugin to fix it
        where NppMenuSearch and jn notepad++ plugins booth installed

        NppMenuSearch

          DSpellCheck is at v1.4.13, and I haven’t got jN installed, so I checked the other one.

          MenuSearch is the culprit. When I close NP, it disappears from the process tree as well. Sorted :)
