Install the following Plugins from the Plugin Manager: No Network: in this scenario there is no point selecting "Updater" in the installer and any plugins will need to be updated via the Plugin Download section below Proxy Connection: as of Notepad++ 6.3.1 you need to configure the proxy settings in the Plugin Manager, via the Settings button, you can also configure the Updater to use a proxy via "Set Updater Proxy" on the ? menu There are three possible options regarding networking in terms of Notepad++ connecting to the internet:ĭirect Connection: if you have a direct connection to the internet or rather a proxy is not required then everything is fine out of the box With Notepad++ 6.8.2 the "Source Code Pro" font was dropped, it will come back at some point when the issues are sorted.
If you have upgraded from an old version you have to make the change manually, simply go to Settings -> Style Configurator., then select "Global Styles" and change the font name for both "Global override" and "Default Style". Starting with Notepad++ 6.8 the default font switched to "Source Code Pro", it used to be "Courier New". Again with Windows Server 2012 R2 and Notepad++ 6.8.2 this was not an issue. I also found that this still did not work after restoring a snapshot, in this case un-installing Notepad++ then installing Download Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package MFC Security Update from Official Microsoft Download Center and installing Notepad++ again then worked. This was not the case with Windows Server 2012 R2 and Notepad++ 6.8.2.
On a Windows Server 2008 R2 box, I found that just running it meant the context menu did not work in Windows Explorer, re-installing with "Run as Administrator" got this working. It is worth noting that you should run the installer as "Administrator" by right clicking the installer and selecting "Run as Administrator".
Clearly there are plenty more plugins that can be added, however, as with all software, don't install every plugin you find, just pick what you really need. As of version 6.8.6 the default installer includes the following plugins: Converter 3.0, MIME Tools 1.9, NppExport 0.2.8, Plugin Manager 1.3.5, interestingly DSpellCheck 1.2.14 and NppFTP 0.26.3 are no longer included, they used to be.
Start Notepad++, either from the installer (when it has finished), the Start Menu or the Windows Explorer Context Menu to edit a file.
