      Found no (new) option to possibly reactivate the (automatic) file format language dependent highlighting.

        @Andreas-V ,

        Automatic filetype detection works for me.

        My first guess is that you have a file greater than 200MB, because there is a set of options (added in v8.4.7) called Settings > Preferences > Performance which allows you to turn off certain higher-CPU-cost features of Notepad++ for large files, and syntax highlighting is turned off by default for files >200MB.
