Notepad settings are reset after an abnormal shutdown.
-
Hi,
Somtimes my laptop reboots automatically with an bluescreen error.
Most of the time there is nothing issues with the notepad, but rarely it happens that the settings of the notepad are completely reset.
Is there any way to fix this, or is there any way to revert to the previous settings when it resets?
Thank you.

@Junuk-Seo Please post the results from Notepad++'s

menu. It generates a small data dump that has information that will best guide any discussion about where your settings are stored and how to best save or recover them. -
I have similar problems sometimes, even if I use Npp portable versions. Probably some file that Npp is writing to the disk gets corrupted cause of the abnormal shutdown.
Nevertheless I frequently do a complete backup to a compressed archive of the folder with plugins and my customization and so on. So, just in case, I can delete the corrupted folder and decompress the whole Npp folder having back al my main customization ready to restart working in seconds.It is also possible even to implement a little script to make the Npp folder backup automatically.
