    When i use Windows XP, I can type text with unicode (encode in UTF-8), but in Windows 7 RC (build 7100), those text turn into "?" character, while i can still type correctly in Windows Notepad.
    Example:
    In windows XP: chất
    In windows 7 RC: ch?t

    Please fix this bug.

      I have the same problem. I have installed the latest notepad++ - 5.3.1. I need to edit a file in Cyrillic, i.e. Russian language. in Windows Vista and earlier version it used to display the following:

      Correct: словарь

      But in Windows 7 Beta/RC: ñëîâàðü

      I have another graphical problem with this notepad++.

      After I press Ctrl+F (Find a word) and use it, I close that small window. However, it does not disappear, but makes its opacity be low and becomes slightly transparent. But it bothers, 'cos I hardly can see words under the Find-window. It simply does not disappear.

      I hope someone will respond positively.

        The "Find dialog" problem is resolving by disabling "transparency" checkbox in the bottom right cornet of itself.

        As of cyrillic problem, I have the same thing, try to disable UAC or start N++ in Vista or XP compatibility mode.

        BUT. When I set the Vista compatibility mode, I can not use the N++ from the Right Mouse Button (Open With) menu because it says it cannot find the needed DLL file. So I need to start N++ only from the shortcut on my desktop.

      the find box bug is fixed. Just uncheck the line "transparency" in find box, it will disappear when you close.

        Right-click the; notepad++.exe; in its installation directory, select 'Properties', select the 'Compatibility' tab, check the 'Run this program in compatibility mode' checkbox and select for instance 'Windows Vista (Service Pack 2)'.

      I've got the same problem when typing some Czech characters in Windows 7 RC x64. It used to work without problems and then suddenly, in the middle of writing some LaTeX document, I was unable to type some characters as they were being replaced with question marks (the already-written part of the document was OK, copying and pasting the problematic characters worked correctly). Runing Notepad++ in a compatibility mode (such as Vista SP2) solves the problem, as does running the ANSI build of Notepad++.
