    Hi,

    I was wondering if anyone here was able to change the default working folder from where notepad++ is sitting to a user defined folder. It's very annoying to have to go back to my folder to save a new file.

    Aside from that, great job on this app. I love it

    John

      I have the same problem / question..

      Looking through this forum it has been asked several times, but never gets a reply. I guess that Don doesn't read the forum. Shame! It is a great little prog otherwise.

          That's going to be a great addition to this fantastic tool. 

          I do just about all of my PHP development with Notepad++ and I just want to say thanks to Don for all of the work that went into this.

          As a workaround until then, try creating shortcuts to all the areas you normally work in, and place them in the Notepad++ program directory.  Give them names that make them appear first in the directory listing, then you can use them to quickly change to the right area each time you save a new file.

      He read it, be sure! But he is quite busy so that he could not post to everyone back.

      Best Regards

      Excellent program. Just one drawback :-(, file/save should open the folder where the previous file was saved.

      This maybe can help:
      if you start NP++ by clicking the associated program file in your working directory then all opening and saving operations are addressed there.
