      I think after the last 2 updates (now running:

      Notepad++ v8.4.7 (64-bit)
      Build time : Nov 1 2022 - 23:31:11
      Path : C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
      Command Line : “C:\Program Files (x86)\Dolphin\Sam\vocalizer\Vocalizer.txt”
      Admin mode : ON
      Local Conf mode : OFF
      Cloud Config : OFF
      OS Name : Windows 11 (64-bit)
      OS Version : 22H2
      OS Build : 25252.1000
      Current ANSI codepage : 1252
      Plugins :
      CodeAlignmentNpp (14.1.107)
      ExtSettings (1.2.1)
      JSMinNPP (1.2107.2)
      Linefilter3 (1)
      LocationNavigate (0.4.8.1)
      mimeTools (2.9)
      NotepadStarterPlugin (2.3.3)
      NppConverter (4.5)
      nppcrypt (1.0.1.6)
      NppExport (0.4)
      NPPJSONViewer (1.40)
      NppUISpy (1.0.4)
      qkNppReverseLines (1)
      RegexTrainer (1)
      Remove Duplicate Lines (1.3)
      XBrackets (1.3)
      ), my selected text is no longer visible, well it’s visible (and selected) but the selection color is transparant.

      I can’t remember making any changes to the theme/template since a while, it might also have something todo with a Windows update but I’m not sure.
      Any one else having this ‘issue’ or did I miss a setting somewhere…

        @Leon-Meijer I’ve noticed that the plugin “ExtSettings” is unable to save settings after the last 1 or 2 updates and there are few options that are connected to this issue… disabling it should resolve the problem for you ;)

        (the transparency of the selected text background color is set to 100% in the initial settings of the plugin, and since it can’t be saved, the result is this problem)

          Correction - the plugin works fine only the settings file got probably corrupted by the NPP update… delete just the file “ExtSettings.ini” in “%appdata%\Notepad++\plugins\Config” … that should be enough to fix it ;)
