    I am having notepad++ v 6.5.4, i installed explorer plugin 1.8.2, but after installing , my notepad++ is not starting up.

    If i remove the explorer.dll from plugins folder, notepad++ is working correctly.

    Please help me in this issue.

    Check and see if the Server service is running, I use to disable it on single user machines that wore not networked so I ended up with this error, explorer (and light explorer) plugin needs server.
    see this article about it
    http://computerstepbystep.com/server_service.html
    or google start server service

    Thank you very much for this answer. This was the solution for me.
    It would be nice if these plugins were not just hanging the whole application but posting a message about the missing service.
    There never was an answer to bug tickets about this issue. Does anybody read the bug tickets?
