Random insertion of " ` " in my files
-
Often, and with no apparent trigger, a “`” character appears in a random place in files I am editing (and not always on the lines I am editing). has anyone else seen this?

@Eric-Y ,

I have not.
If it were just randomly typing it where your cursor/caret is, I would say that maybe you have a dirty or flakey keyboard. But since it seems to be happening in random locations, even though your caret/cursor is not there, I might blame a flakey plugin, or maybe you have a broken AutoHotKey or similar external program that’s incorrectly injecting keystrokes into Notepad++.
To debug a Plugin as the possible issue, see our Crash FAQ: Possible Culprit: Plugin – the FAQ focuses on crashes, but really that section of the FAQ applies for debugging any problem that might be caused by a plugin.
unfortunately, we cannot really help you debug AHK or other external programs.
