    I cannot find japanese kanjis when I'm using the "Find" funcion. When I paste them, they appear correct, but when I start searching, the characters change into ? as unrecognized. I can past japanese characters in a document without a trouble, but I'm unable to do a simple search. Is there a way to fix this? I'm using Notepad++ 4.7.5.

      I have this problem and reported it and had no response. Importantly, it's not just copy/paste - even if you type the characters into the 'Find' box and they show properly, after you press 'Find' they change into questions marks ???? and the Find doesn't work. Making NotePad++ useless for searching non-english text files.
