Help - Update Notepad++ issue

If I call Help - Update Notepad++, I get a message:

Xml Exception

It’s not a valid GUP xml.

OK

Is this a known issue?

Just download the latest installer from the the main Notepad++ site – https://notepad-plus-plus.org/downloads/v8.5.3/

Overwrite your local installation as usual. It worked for me.

@phil-nye Thank you this worked.

I have reported this in the Announcement topic where @Snabel42 had reported about the captcha affecting Notepad++ Update, as well as I just created issue #13685. We’ll see if Don can get his ISP to turn that off for those URLs.
