    Did updating to v8.5.8 remove Closing multiple documents from that tab's context menu?

        Closing multiple documents is still there in the tab’s right click menu. In a quite recent Notepad++ update before v8.5.8 many of the options available in the right-click menu were moved into sub-menus of the right click menu. The close multiple documents options are now tucked into the Close Multiple Tabs sub-menu which then has all four of the options that used to be in the main right click menu.

        There is a workaround that lets people move options back into the main right-click menu. When npp was first updated to have this sub-menu structure I was planning on implementing that workaround for the now-sub menu options I use frequently but I discovered that I quickly got used to the sub-menu structure and so left things that way.

        Unfortunately, I can’t find the forum post or manual section that gives the workaround. If I recall, it involved editing one of Notepad++'s configuration files.

            Thank you both. I don’t know why I didn’t see the option yesterday.
