in run but no option to launch in chrome
Hello. I have used NP++ for many years but there is an old bug which drives me nuts: When I have multiple unsaved files in open tabs and the active window is an already saved file and I select "Save as...", then enter a file name and save the file, one of the other unsaved files is being saved instead. Many times I didn't notice right away and I had temporary, unimportant notes saved instead, sometimes overwriting important files which then were lost forever.
Is this a known bug or do I need to open a ticket for it?
Oh, now I got it. Usually in most programs "save as." has a keyboard shortcut of
Ctrl-Shift-S or F12. But when I use Ctrl-Shift-S in NPP, it means "save all" (i.e. also all unsaved files). If I really want "save as" I need to use Ctrl-Alt-S. Very dangerous! I only noticed now that I wanted to create a reproducer screen video.
I think I will either remap the keyboard shortcut or just deactivate "save all" until I have trained myself to use
Ctrl-Alt-S. Probably I will just use F12 for "save as" and Ctrl-Shift-S for "save all" or something.
The two existing ones are too similar for such a potentially dangerous action. It is also counter-intuitive during "save all" to get several pop-ups for files without focus in the main window, so I am not even knowing what I am saving.
If at least the focus would change first before saving a file, so the current file was in the foreground, at least as a user I would have a chance to notice what is happening.
And in my opinion my PC is good enough to work with text files ._.
I want a multicolor look for programming in html, CSS, and Java.

On the startpage of notepad-plus-plus.org the image show a way of floding blocks by bracket (https://notepad-plus-plus.org/assets/images/notepad4ever.gif). How do I activate this feature?
*folding - I guess this is called folding.
@mho-de I should have added "that folds with square and wavy brackets". C comes to mind for the wavy brackets (braces).
I have another question. By pressing Ctrl+B the cursor jumps from one brace to the corresponding one. I tried to select that text by simultaneously holding down shift (Ctrl+Shift+B) but STX (a special character?) has been printed instead. Is there a way to select all text that is embraced by a pair of braces?
@sasumner Well i tried to apply the plugin directly to the files after i didn't find it in this new plugin manager. It didn't help so I tried with different versions and the first that worked was notepad 7 with old plugin manager. I think that it is not coherent with newest versions but i still have hope that somebody uses it and knows how to fix it
@MortalBreeze You might have more luck (more people will see it) if you post here?: https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/
@MortalBreeze I downloaded
I created new folder
I copied the contents from
This seems to work in Notepad++ v7.8.6 (32-bit): the plugin is recognized as menu item Plugins > Emmet.
emmet-npp.zip from https://github.com/emmetio/npp#readmeI created new folder
<npp>\plugins\EmmetNPP(where <npp> is the folder containing the notepad++.exe file).I copied the contents from
emmet-npp.zip (i.e. the file EmmetNPP.dll and the folder EmmetNPP) into that new folder.This seems to work in Notepad++ v7.8.6 (32-bit): the plugin is recognized as menu item Plugins > Emmet.
@Akhilreddykaipa It was replaced with
