    @donho Hi.
    I don’t have the search results window appear for all open documents.
    I fixed the problem in previous versions by adding two lines to config.xml.
    <FloatingWindow cont=“6” x=“2669” y=“198” width=“4974” height=“1362” />
    <ActiveTabs cont=“6” activeTab=“0” />

      @Rudolf-Baykalov ,

      You might want to read v8.7 search results window not showing and Ctrl+shift+f not working … – those might give you ideas on how to get your search-results window working for now. @xomx (who is usually the volunteer to work on such issues in the codebase) is well aware of the problem, and I’m hoping there will be a fix in-place before v8.7.1 is released.

      We also have a FAQ from the earlier versions where it was often caused by the docked-panel size getting too small, so people didn’t notice it; that aspect was fixed in v8.6.9, but unfortunately, we’ve seen a lot of these reports in v8.7.

      As mentioned in those other threads, usually if people exit Notepad++, edit %AppData%\Notepad++\config.xml with a different editor (like the builtin notepad.exe – Notepad++ cannot edit its own config.xml because even if you save it, Notepad++ overwrites config.xml when you exit Notepad++), then delete the whole <GUIConfig name=“DockingManager” …>…</GUIConfig> section, then save and exit the other editor, then relaunch Notepad++, then their search results window is able to return on their next find-all.

      If you would like to share more details, please reply to this topic), and supply the details mentioned in that topic: how many monitors do you use? are one or more monitors High DPI? what were the values of the <GUIConfig name=“DockingManager” …>…</GUIConfig> section before you deleted them

        @PeterJones npp.8.7.portable.x64.zip with search result window works. Maybe it’s a settings issue?

          Yes, that’s why my instructions told you how to edit the settings to clear out the “old values”, and when Notepad++ resets that deleted section, it generally works again.

          Also, for you (and all future readers), I have updated the Cannot find my panel FAQ to have debug/fix instructions for v8.7 Search Results panel issues

            There are bugs with this implementation.

              @donho Do you want a github issue created for this in order to give it attention?

                    CVE-2014-9456 is a Notepad++ issue, and it’s been fixed by commit:
                    https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/commit/a9b5235402af6dc8e1290a29089456a3ced415bd

                    If you’re talking about the issue of the updater\libcurl.dll, I guess you’re meaning CVE-2024-7264, which is fixed by commit in wingup:
                    https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/wingup/commit/2ee34a8283bb3d9df811d290c67461956d49e2ca

                    The new version of WinGup which cotains above fix will be included in next Notepad++ release v8.7.1.

                      @donho Thank you. Yes. Sorry for the confusion. I meant the CVE-2024-7264 present in updater/libcurl.dll. When is it possible to get v8.7.1 released?
