Your steps don’t really “repro” all that well.

  1. Click on New

What does this mean?
Toolbar button for new document?:

That is the only thing on the UI (without doing more actions that you haven’t described) that would give a “New” behavior.

  1. Right Click on the new sheet and click on Save As

If I right click on the new “sheet” I get no option to Save As:

However, if I right-click on the tab of the sheet (but you didn’t say that, so I’m confused) I get that option:

But choosing it I get no crash, I get:

And then continuing on to save the file I still get no crash, thus to:

  1. Observe that Notepad++ app crashes.

I say “I can’t reproduce”.

I’m doing all this on N++ 7.8.8.
Does it make sense that you should have also told us what version you are using?

At this point I have to point you HERE.
