Crash on view source when previous source...

    I have NP++ set up such that when I view source with IE, it brings up Notepad.  IE puts those source files in a temporary folder, and deletes them whenever you view the source again of the same page.  What's happening is that I view source from IE, I tab over to NP++ and see the prompt for "this file has expired, would you like to close it"  (paraphrasing), I click OK to close the file, and immediately get a NP++ crash. 

    Is anyone else seeing this problem?  Are there any other details or logs or anything I could provide to help find this bug?

    TIA, Charles

      More detailed reproduction steps:

      Settings:
      * Np++ is default text editor (when viewing source from IE, notepad++ opens by default)
      * Np++ settings->MISC->File Status auto-protection: enable: checked; update silently: checked

      1) open Internet Explorer
      2) Navigate to google.com
      3) right click on page and click on "View Source"
      4) verify that page has opened in np++
      5) repeat steps 3 and 4 until np++ crashes.  Sometimes it crashes for me the first time, sometimes it takes 3 times, but almost never more than 3 attempts.  If you can do this 5 times in a row without crashing, I would accept that you are not able to reproduce this bug.

      Can some people out there give these steps a shot?

      Notepad++ often crash when you delete a file from disk and you said do not keep file in notepad
