    Corrupted Session Starting in Notepad++ v8.6.5, it will store session.xml.inCaseOfCorruption.bak next to session.xml, and will automatically use that if session.xml is corrupted. However, if you ever find that you open Notepad++ (especially after an update or a system crash) and find that the files opened weren’t in the same state as when you let them, you can try this procedure: Exit Notepad++ Windows Explorer, go to %AppData%\Notepad++ (or in your appropriate config-file location if you aren’t using AppData for config) Rename session.xml to session.xml--keep Copy session.xml.inCaseOfCorruption.bak to session.xml Run Notepad++ → If it’s now showing the right copy of your files, great! If not, exit Notepad++, delete session.xml, and rename session.xml--keep back to session.xml .

    I think keeping discussions focused on the original topic helps everyone get more useful answers. At the same time, related side discussions can be valuable when they add context or share practical experience. A clear distinction between the main topic and tangential advice makes the community easier to follow.

    Years later, I finally had the time to figure out how to implement “UDL as Default Language” for PR#18499 to close my Issue #11097 and related Issues. It was just just merged, so will be in the upcoming v8.9.9 RC

    Hello, just wanted to let you know that SQLinForm got a fresh new function The new version of the SQLinForm plugin adds a Navigator, a docked side panel that shows the structure of your SQL. It’s meant for long scripts, stored procedures and deeply nested queries. What it does Overview graph: every statement and sub-SQL as a box. Boxes are colored by type: SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE and MERGE. Edges are labeled with the clause the sub-SQL sits in (WHERE, SET, USING, UNION ALL, …), and CTEs are labeled with their names (WITH region_sales). Structure tree: each statement broken down into clauses and items, with quick facts like 3 columns · 2 tables · 1 condition · 1 sub-SQL. Click to jump: click a box or a row and the line is selected in the editor. Levels 1–4 / All: collapse or expand the whole tree in one click. Search with next/previous hit, highlighted in both the tree and the graph. Cursors, CTEs (with the main query shown separately), UNION, MERGE … WHEN and INSERT … SELECT are handled. Light and dark theme. The UI is available in 12 languages. I appreciate any suggestion or error feedback :-) [image: 1792359699367-navigator2.png] [image: 1792359717195-structviewer.png]
