      Notepad++ loses the session and temp file loaded after update. There are the settings “Remember current session for next launch”, “Enable session snapshot and periodic backup”, “Backup path”, all ok. It is not expected to lose session after reinstall or crash. Since Notepad++ is supposed to be able to load the closed session but it doesn’t load after reinstall, it is a big fail of Development team. It is a critical bug that team doesn’t fix for so much time. And don’t tell me that I have to search the files in %appdata%. I don’t have to care about that. It is your failure.

        I just came across the same issue a few minutes ago. Tried exploring the options but still couldn’t get my unsaved but open texts after the latest update from January 13th 2025…

          I assume you haven’t checked the AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\backup folder, because they are probably right there.

            Maybe similar reason:
