but maybe add flag update anyway?

Well, not within MY power.
It sounds like a FEATURE REQUEST but probably not one that will gain much traction.

Personally, I wouldn’t be so concerned.
Can you load/edit/save the text files you work on, with the version of Notepad++ you have?
If yes, be glad. :-)

@long76

This is a FAQ that doesn’t have an entry in the FAQ.

There’s a time-delay between a new version coming out, and auto-updater being triggered.
This is so that a critical bug doesn’t torch a huge number of users, just the “early adopters”.

If you are so anxious for a new version, and you know (apparently) one exists, why don’t you go and get it manually and become an “early adopter”? :-)
