      Recently updated to the latest version. I have a macro that replaces the text T_ with “empty”. Now, every time I use it, the prompt “are you sure you want to replace?” and this window does not even use the dark theme for which I was updating. How can I remove this request? I want him to immediately replace the text as it was before.

        @Юрий-Марков Have you tried recreating the macro? This would at least discriminate between ‘undesired interpretation of old macro’ vs. ‘inability for text replace macro to run without confirmation’, which is a different type of anomaly.

          @Юрий-Марков ,

          You might want to check the settings in Settings > Preferences > Searching, especially the state of “Confirm Replace All in All Opened Documents” (as documented in the online user manual).

          If I switch to Русский :

          e0823b64-8f7b-44e3-b3df-b08d3d3fd23c-image.png

          With that option on, and try to do a replace-all-in-all-opened-documents – I don’t read Русский, but it looks like I get the same message you do:

          fd4dfa4d-e648-4d91-a487-4afd519d5911-image.png

          whereas if I turn off that option, it doesn’t ask, and just does the replacement.

          So turn off that option, and your macro will go back to working.

            @PeterJones Thank you very much, apparently some new setting has appeared, and this request does not appear if you use the replacement window, not a macro.

              Software is continually being enhanced

              and this request does not appear if you use the replacement window, not a macro.

              Incorrect, it appears either way, any time you use Replace All in All Opened Documents (unless you change the Preference setting that was shown for it)

                It’s just that I haven’t updated Notepad ++ for a very long time))) Purely by chance I saw that a dark theme appeared, I have been dreaming about it for 3 years, everything has a dark theme for a long time, even in Total Commander it appeared.
