Hello, I used a patch that disabled the UAC on Vista. When I upgraded to 4.6 I started getting an error whenever I launch notepad++. I get a message that says:
"The requested operation requires elevation"
And immediately after that I get a message saying:
"Exception: 1002"
After I click ok on both of the messages the program launches fine.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Got the same messages on Vista Ultimate with UAC active. It looks that GUP is causing problems; the messages will disappear:
-- if you disable GUP, or
-- if you run Notepad++ as an administrator
The second solution triggers confirmation pop-up from UAC, but on your machine it might be absent.
I had to use the first solution, since I frequently open documents from the right-click menu in Explorer and pop-ups make it very annoying.

And then I looked to the Notepad++ homepage: http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/news.php
"Thanks to GUP, Notepad++ v4.6 has the capacity to search and install the update package (if available) from Internet.
GUP (Generic Updater for win32) project is made originally for Notepad++. During its conception, one idea came in my mind : if it can fit Notepad++, it can fit any Windows program. Thus the birth of GUP.
See : http://sourceforge.net/projects/gup-w32/ and http://gup-w32.sourceforge.net/ for more detail of GUP." (25/11/2007, v4.6)

sorry, what is GUP ? :S
First I thougt it could be GNU GUP (Group Update Program): http://packages.debian.org/en/sarge/gup
And then I looked to the Notepad++ homepage: http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/news.php

GUP = Settings -> Preferences -> Misc -> Enable Notepad++ Auto-Updater.
If you disable this, "GUP" will not run, and thus you will not get the 'Elevation' question.
