      Hi,
      Is there any option in Notepad++ so that we can disable some plugin in the startup of the application?

        disable some plugin

        Rename its DLL file to disable a plugin; maybe remove the .dll extension and append .$$$ to its name temporarily (or whatever you like).

          or rename the folder that the DLL is in. So if you have SomePlugin.dll inside of ...\plugins\SomePlugin\, rename the folder to ...\plugins\SomePlugin.disable\ and restart Notepad++ to run with that plugin disabled.

            @peterjones is there any way we can disable the plugin from the application itself?

              No.
              The only control the application has over plugin loading is vial the -noPlugin command line argument, but that will disable all plugins, not “some” as in your original question.

                  Which one?
                  We probably could have given you better suggestions quicker if you’d have elaborated more on what you wanted/needed to do.
                  Sure, if all it was was “disable plugins”, then I guess we got you there. :-)
