      Hello All
      How do I get this plugin to work in the current version of NPP? I use the plugin all of the time but it wont work after about version 7.5.6 (32 bit).

      Please help or add this type of feature in the default software, where you won’t need a plugin.

      Thanks Brendan.

        Version 7.6 started using the Plugins Admin functionality, although I believe the plugin installation structure started changing around version 7.5.8.

        The critical change was to to require each plugin be installed in a separate folder (using the base name of the plugin dll file) under the plugins folder, e.g.,
        %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Notepad++\plugins\NppColumnSort based on the relatively ancient not kept current blum.org blog entry.
        Alternatively, install the desired plugin using the Plugins > Plugins Admin... menu selection in your new Npp installation.

          Can confirm @artie-finkelstein is correct - I manually installed the 64-bit version from https://github.com/blumu/NppColumnSort/releases/tag/1.0.0.2-64bits in $(NPP_DIRECTORY)\plugins\NppColumnSort\NppColumnSort.dll and it works fine. I don’t think it is available via Plugins Admin - so the manual route is needed.

          Cheers.

            My apologies on the incorrect reference to Plugins Admin. It looks like I was using the ‘Installed’ tab, not the ‘Available’ tab when I was tracking it down. Mea culpa [My bad].

              No worries - seems you had the correct diagnosis - and in the process, I found a nice little plugin to file away which may be useful for some CSV file processing I do now and again.

              Cheers.

                    You can’t on 64-bit. Download the correct plugin version:

                    https://github.com/blumu/NppColumnSort/releases/tag/1.0.0.2-64bits

                    Cheers.
