I just installed the latest version using the no %APPDATA% option and the installer and when I click on a file I get the message "Load langs.xml failed!", followed by a "Do you wish to recover your config.xml", followed by a recover "config.xml failed", followed by a "load styles.xml failed" etc etc.
However, when I right-click the file and click "Edit with Notepad++" using the file explorer integration feature, I do not get these messages.
I think it may be related to the no %APPDATA% option and not knowing where my configuration files are when I click on the file directly but that is only a guess.
Anyone else seen this behavior.
Whatty
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
You probably have notepad++ somewhere on your harddisk two times. One works fine (context menu) the other doesnt (its probably the executable without anything else)
Best bet is to remove the Notepad++ associations and add them again, by running the context menu version first.

Interesting, I used the published Notepad replacement instructions, effectively replacing the SYSTEM notepad with NOTEPAD++, which is most likely causing the problems.
Anyone else seen this behavior with the system notepad replacement option and know a workaround (i.e. putting the NOTEPAD++ installation path in the system %path% variable).

you probably wound up replacing notepad.exe with a copy of notepad++.exe, which shouldnt be the case. The launcher is a separate executable, which in turn launches the real notepad++.
See if you can replace the current notepad with the launcher and have it run notepad++ from the proper directory.
