        The search window (CTRL+F) only remembers the position, but not the size.
        In previous versions it remembered both.

            Could anyone here who has Windows 7 test this version, and let me know if the crash can reproduce?

                @donho ,
                with 8.6.8 i am seeing , notepad++ not able to open the file from a linux mapped drive in windows but able to open linux folder mapped to windows.

                drive mapping shortcut and folder mapping shortcut both point to same user folder.
                in normal windows through browsing i am able to open both the shortcuts, if go to the file through folder mapping i am able to open the file in notepad++, if i go through drive mapping to the same file not able to open in notepad++.

                  @RAMA-KRISHNA - If you can open a file in Notepad++ using folder mapping then what gets put in the copy/paste buffer when you right click on the tab for the file and select Copy to Clipboard / Copy Full File Path?

                    @donho ,

                    In this post, @Paolo-Santini pointed out another regression: v8.6.7 remembered the Find / Replace / Find-in-Files dialog size from one run to the next, whereas v8.6.8 does not.

                        Yes, I was aware of this regression. It’s been fixed and will be in the next release.

                          Hello,
                          I find an error with a new version:

                          I save csv file in excel (ANSI encoding) and then open it in Notepad++ and Convert it to UTF-8.

                          When I installed 8.6.8 after clicking “Convert to UTF-8” it would delete all the text from the file instead of converting it.

                          I installed older version (8.6.7) and it works just as it used to.

                          it would be great to correct the error.
                          Thank you!

                            GitHub issue #15324.
                            Fix is already in progress, it should be included in the upcoming next N++ version.
