<p dir="auto">That hasn’t been the documentation URL for years, and there shouldn’t be anything left that links to that.  The <strong>?</strong> links you to <a href="http://npp-user-manual.org" rel="nofollow ugc">npp-user-manual.org</a>, which is the official online user manual.</p>

</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">The manual doesn’t delve into the nitty gritty mapping of each preference to which attribute in the config.xml it refers to.  The expectation when Don tasked me and others to implement the modern user manual was to make it focused on “normal” users – and “normal” users only want to use the GUI.  For people who want to manually edit the <code>config.xml</code> instead of use the GUI, they are expected to experiment with the GUI, see how it influences the <code>config.xml</code>, and then make the changes.</p>
<p dir="auto">As someone who is trying to deploy, I understand your need to get deeper into the details. But really, since you have to unpack the default installer to be able to get at the config files that you need to configure anyway, I would think it would be easiest to unpack, go into the GUI and make the settings the way you want, then go grab the GUI-edited config files.</p>
<p dir="auto">But the update setting is controlled by</p>
<pre><code>&lt;GUIConfig name="noUpdate" intervalDays="15" nextUpdateDate="20220223"&gt;yes&lt;/GUIConfig&gt;
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">Note that the value <code>yes</code> means “no update”, and <code>no</code> means “do the automatic update”.  So what I’ve shown you will disable the automatic updater.</p>

<p dir="auto">I assume on this deployment method that you have the ability to edit a config file before putting it into your distribution, and thus in each user’s settings folder?  If so, then edit <code>config.xml</code>, the line</p>
<pre><code>        &lt;GUIConfig name="NewDocDefaultSettings" format="0" encoding="4" lang="21" codepage="-1" openAnsiAsUTF8="yes" /&gt;
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">the <code>lang="21"</code> says to make the default file type (language) Perl.  (the default value is <code>lang="0"</code> for plaintext)</p>
<p dir="auto">To get the list of numbers, the easiest is to just set it once in your original Notepad++ installation, then look at the config.xml value.  Or you can look at the <a href="https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/blob/a391161e3dc7a8830fb086b8d1dd83ec1237462a/PowerEditor/installer/functionList/overrideMap.xml" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>functionList\overrideMap.xml</code></a>, which shows the langID as the number, and the filename it maps to will tell you which language to pick: so 21 is perl, 85 is typescript, etc. You can also look in the <a href="https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/blob/5b5dbbd3f98246ef8d8f37def0f1c5f1a4f08be1/PowerEditor/src/MISC/PluginsManager/Notepad_plus_msgs.h#L23-L38" rel="nofollow ugc">source code &gt; Notepad_plus_msgs.h</a>, and find the value of each enum tokens starting at 0 for L_TXT and up to 85 for L_TYPESCRIPT… but that’s a pain; just use the overrideMap list if you don’t want to use the GUI for the first time.</p>
