    I saved a session in NPP 4.3 prior to upgrading to 4.5, and now I can't open the old session. I know I can just re-open the files, but it still seems like a bug. I tried renaming "current-list" to "current-list.session", as per the setting in the options, but it didn't help. NPP just sits there when I say "Load Session..."

      Bump. Did something change in the session handling code or saving format?

        No, something did not.

        If you are willing to spend some time, you may find the differences between the old and new session.xml file format. It takes a couple of words changes, and it will work again.

        You can also open your files again.
