Hi There!
I’m from the year 2025.
And this insanely annoying issue is still here!Good job team!
And it still is in 2026! :( I was just about to throw OneDrive (aka DonDrive) into the bin and was unable to edit the edit control with the backup path. Honestly, why use an edit control when all you want to do is to display a path? At least there should be a hint about how to really edit this path.

As a reminder to all readers of this Topic, the Community Forum is “The Community of users of the Notepad++ text editor”, as it says in the footer of every single page here (emphasis added). As such, this is just users, talking about Notepad++ and helping each other other. Feature Requests are not tracked here. So all of these “I cannot believe it’s still this way” are effectively just complaining to other users; if that’s theraputic to you, fine; but it won’t tell the developer how many people are interested in that feature being implemented, so it’s just spitting in the wind, so to speak.
We have a FAQ that explains where the Feature Request tracker is. And you could search there (in both open and closed requests) if you want to find the official issue(s) tracking such a request, and see how the developer has responded to such requests, if at all.
