@Artur-Harison
by clicking on minimize(button at top) it’s working
by clicking on close(button at top) it’s not working

by clicking on close it is normal to not work, because by closing notepad++ it should terminate the application.
By the way I have Win7 64-bit, Notepad++ 64-bit and the minimize to tray works as expected.

maybe check if your changes broke xml validity.
From what I read and understood it looks like npp doesn’t
check beforehand if the xml is valid. Think about those issues
which are solved by renaming the notepad directory under %APPDATA%
to recreate the default configs. Just a guess.

Thanks for your comments. nativeLang.xml is in the same folder as my portable N++'s notepad++.exe. Its contents are the same as english_customizable.xml in the localization folder.

It turns out I made some changes to english_customizable.xml recently and apparently what I did is causing it to be rejected somehow at N++ startup. It seems to work okay if I change the setting while N++ is running. I don’t understand what the rejection criterion is; if I knew that it might help me troubleshoot.

Anyway, I’ve reverted my english_customizable.xml from an earlier version and all is back to working again. When I get some time I will reattempt the changes I had made one at a time and try to see what the problem was.

SUMMARY: NO PROBLEM REGARDING THIS IN 7.8RC6!

No problems at my site as well.

The UI language setting is not a “real” setting, i.e. it is not stored in whatever config file. Instead the appropriate file from the localization directory is copied over to the directory where notepad++.exe resides (provided you use a portable version of Notepad++ for testing) and is renamed to nativeLang.xml.

If your language setting doesn’t survive a restart, it could mean that the file nativeLang.xml gets deleted. Did you check that?

No, seems to work for me.
Did a test with a few other languages and all of them survived a restart.

Every time I restart after setting that, I find that the setting has reverted to “English”. Anyone else seeing something similar?
