    I have changed the Registry so that I can edit batch files with NP++ via

    “C:\Program Files\Utils\Notepad++\notepad++.exe” %1

    but it only works with 8.3 “short file names” even though I use Windows 11x64.

    Any easy solution for this that does not involve renaming my batch file please? Although I can use “send to” instead.

      @Henry-G said in Problem with long file names:

      “C:\Program Files\Utils\Notepad++\notepad++.exe” %1

      Does
      "C:\Program Files\Utils\Notepad++\notepad++.exe" "%1"
      help to solve the issue?

        Excellent! Thank you :-}

        And I’m sure it will come in use elsewhere.
