    I just replaced the MS notepad.exe with the Notepad++ executable but I'm getting the following errors (in this sequence) when launching notepad.exe from the Run dialog or when I try to open a text file on my PC. If Notepad++ is already running I do not receive these errors. I reinstalled Notepad++ but I still get the same errors.

    Any ideas?

      sounds to me that you placed your Notepad++ in wrong place!
      Notepad++ musst be in here, i think, but i am not shure!
      --> %programfiles%\Notepad++

      -did you tried a new installation with completly deleting
      -%appdata%\Notepad++ and %programfiles%\Notepad++ ?

      Replacement are here, read the hole thread, please:

      good luck, cheers.

        It must have been a corrupt exe file, as I had a copy remaining after I uninstalled and reinstalled. When I ran the old exe I got the errors, but when I ran the new exe the app launched without a problem.
