FYI, due to 1 critical crash bug (of new Pin Tab feature), & 1 regression (of redundant dialog as opening a folder) Notepad++ v8.7.3 will be out in the weekend. There won’t be RC for v8.7.3.

Small comment to the change.log:
Shouldn’t it show “Notepad++ v8.7.2 new features & bug-fixes:”?
I’m missing the “s” at feature (features & fixes)?

@Luigi-C said in Notepad++ release 8.7.1:

When shifting, left or right, more text rows contemporary in column mode by pressing the TAB key…

English-speaking forum readers may like to know that “contemporary” is used here as in Italian contemporanea‍mente: literally, “at the same time”

@rddim
I will make as large as possible for some checkbox (without enlarging the dialog width) in the next release. Please find other shorter words or the abbreviation for the translation.

@donho Thank you. Yes. Sorry for the confusion. I meant the CVE-2024-7264 present in updater/libcurl.dll. When is it possible to get v8.7.1 released?

@Joshua-Philipo that mean that the person who hacked your account knows your login details

@Madhav-Vasanth ,

See https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/wingup/issues/73 - the fix will be in the next rev.

@donho since you are so well versed on this codebase whats your opinion on this ai generated documentation?

@abitawoods1 said in Notepad++ release 8.6.9:

The DLG box for consent ends up underneath the in-progress dialog. The in-progress reaches 100% and then churns.

Both problems should have already been fixed.
So it should be ok from the next version onward (probably a v8.7).
More e.g. here: GitHub issue #15507 .

To translators: in the project Wingup, there is a
new file you can translate and whose Notepad++ use

@Darius-Gricius

GitHub issue #15324.
Fix is already in progress, it should be included in the upcoming next N++ version.

As I recently mentioned in the GitHub issue, it appears that Dell (or rather their subcontractor) fixed the issue of SupportAssist v4 deleting Notepad++ session.xml. As it stands, SupportAssist v4.0.3 seems to have been corrected to stop this behavior.
