Notepad++ 8.6: user extensions not saved
-
Style Configurator does not remember user extensions outside of current session.
Installed an old version (7.5.8) for testing purposes, added the same extension (lua + script), it was saved and restored in next session, resulting in proper syntax highlight.
Is the issue known? -
I have the same issue. I go into the Style Configurator, select the style (HTML in this case) then enter my custom extension, save, exit, reopen and the setting isn’t saved when I go back into the Configurator.

@Norman-Eisenherz , @Brad-Stone ,
it is fixed in the v8.6.1 Release Candidate available from the announcement thread.
See point#3 in the announcement: it was a “regression” in v8.6 (which meant it was working in v8.5.8 then accidentally broken in v8.6) and is now fixed in v8.6.1.
