      I am migrating to a new computer and am manually installing my software on new machine. I want to preserve the current session in Notepad++ and bring it to the new installation. I do not see apath through the program itslef. Hopeful there is a file that simply can be copied over. The install was by default. Just said yes and let it run so no suprises. Ty in advance for your assist…igydog

        @Magic-Mugs ,

        Assuming all your open files are real files, and all in the exact same folders on old and new machine, then just copy over %AppData%\Notepad++\session.xml

        If some of your files are the unsaved new # tabs, you will also need to copy over everything in %AppData%\Notepad++\backup\

        But if you want all the same settings from your old to your new, just copy over everything from %AppData%\Notepad++\
