      NPP 64 bit v8.9.6.4
      Win11

      I have multiple plugin updates available in Plugins Admin but when I select them and select Update, NPP closes but no updates or re-launch takes place.

        @docpomus ,

        I am sorry no one replied yet.

        Usually when that happens, it means that either gup.exe or nppPluginList.dll (in subdirectories of your Notepad++ installation folder) still have the “mark of the web”.

        To check (and clear) the “mark of the web”, exit Notepad++; right click on the exe or dll file; select Properties; in the General properties tab, if there is a message at the bottom with “unblock”, checkmark that checkbox, and click OK. Do that for either/both files. After that, the plugins should be able to update from Plugins Admin again.
