      When an intense Find in Files activity is in progress and if we try to navigate to another item in Search results pane, Notepad++ freezes and slips into Not Responding state till the find operation completes.

        if you were to search this forum you will see several posts on the subject. Suffice to say it isn’t implemented and likely not to be so. Check out this post. Or do your own searches.

          @lavanyadeepak ,

          What I can think of is that if Find in Files was running in another thread then the user could modify/delete files in parallel which would mess-up the ongoing search operation.
