    Hello,
    I'm running notepad++ (32 bits) on windows 7 pro (64 bits), and since some times XMLTools.dll (32 bits) seems to prevent notepad++ to start. The main window opens but stays blank and the program is not responsive. Removing XMLTools.dll from the plugins folder solves the problem - only that of course xmltools is then not available.
    I've restarted from a fresh download of a zipped notepad++ in a new folder, v7.2 dated Nov 2nd, 2016, with plugin manager 1.4.3 (if that's relevant).
    Does someone experience the same problems as me? Is there a solution ?

    Same problem with "Xml Tools 2.4.9.2 x86 Unicode".
    Reverted to "Xml Tools 2.4.9.1 x86 Unicode" and wotks.
    Using NPP v7.5.1.

    "Xml Tools 2.4.9.2 x86 Unicode" now works with NPP v7.5.1 32 bits (on W7 x64)

    The problem seemed to be tied to libwinpthread-1.dll but it disapeared once I run NPP in compatibility mode (Vista SP3) and then back into normal mode.

    (?) Go figure. :(
