    since a few days i don't seem to be able to "reduce" (german: "verkleinern") the siz of a notepad++ window.
    i can either minimize it into the task bar or maximize it.  clicking on the dobbel window ico (reduce size) will close the window entirely and without saving content.

    would you know where to change this option ?

    thanks, gerhard

      I have a similar problem. When I reduce it is equivalent  to minimizing it. I can only use notepad on fullsize.

      Had the same problem requiring a reinstall to reset  -  found out that the AppPosition 'x' value was way off in the config.xml. Mine's currently:

      <GUIConfig name="AppPosition" x="150" y="116" width="748" height="495" isMaximized="yes" />

      Hope this helps!

      I had the same out-of-body experience.

      Processes show N++ normalised window was somewhere offscreen not locatable. Something weird's goin'on with N++ under under mysterious circumstances which would cause N++ to disappear into thin air like a ghost floating around your PC but you cannot see it unless you max the window.

      I installed a desktop manager, which located the N++ window and pulled it back into sight. After which, I uninstalled the desktop manager.

      I guess reinstalling N++ would have been a simpler affair.

        Or you could edit the Notepad++ config.xml file with regular Notepad and change the AppPosition x value to read x="0" (this sets the left-hand side of the window to the left-hand side of the primary screen.  --Joel
