      Admin mode: ON

      That’s the reason, you have your N++ app set to run as admin, so Windows UIPI prevents communication from the unprivileged NppShell context menu.

        but with my windows 10, the right click “edit with notepad++” doesn’t work.

        What do you mean by “doesn’t work”?
        A screenshot or a more accurate description may help us to understand your problem.

        edit: My post is 10 seconds later than the post of @xomx - yes, that should be the source of the problem.

          Hi, I’m so sorry for the late response. Thank you so much for the tip ! When I disabled “Run this program as an administrator” for the Notepad++ executable, “Edit with Notepad++” started working again.
          Thanks for your help, and thank you for all the work you put into Notepad++.

            @donho,

            Based on HELP on Macros - security issue? and Problem running a macro without any associated key combination, I would say that the Security Warning dialog needs to be slightly more explicit: now that the warning occurrs for both Run menu entries and for Macro menu entries, the message should change use “Validate shortcuts.xml” from the menu to confirm it to use “Validate shortcuts.xml” from the Run menu to confirm it, so that users can find that menu entry, whether they see the message from trying to do a saved Run command or a Macro.

                    If I understood you correctly, you are talking about the “Folder as Workspace” feature, right? If so, that was reported multiple times in this forum and in the main issues (like #18226 and #18248), and is caused if you have symbolic links in your directories.

                    Unfortunately, when I look through the fixes in v8.9.8 Release Candidate, or look at the still-open issues, I am not sure that a fix for that problem made it into v8.9.8. That is rather unfortunate, as it was a major complaint with v8.9.7.

                        Missing Shift to DELETE a file permanently rather than Move to Recycle Bin.

                          @Ian-Eales ,

                          That sounds more like a feature request than something that used to work but broke during 8.9.7 – so it’s not a regression. The FAQ here explains where requests for new features need to go …
