    Hi I found a bug that seems to occur with long paths:

    Please ...

    - make sure you have a file (it can be 0 byte) exists with the following path:
    "C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\legnon0\Eigene Dateien\Arbeit\Projekte\Schaltungsbibliothek\Wiki_XVDT_Demodulator\XVDT_Demodulator_Anhang\_Dokumente\Versionstabelle_fuer_Wiki-TE.txt"

    - open the file in NP++

    - close the file

    - delete the file (but keep the directories)

    - Try to open it  via the "File"-menu (the list with the recently opnened files)

    - NP++ comes up with an window that requests to generate the file because it can't find it.

    - Press Yes or No

    -> NP++ crashes!!!

    If you have pressed Yes, it has generated a 0-byte file before crashing.

    This bug is extremely annoying if the user has checked the option to restore the last session and NP++ tries to open this file automatically after starting!!

      This will be version >4.5, right? In NP++ 4.5 the bug is still there.

      Thanks for working on this great editor. It is the best one that I could find!

      I can reproduce it.

      This bug will be fixed in the next version.
