Bug Reports
If
you find that Notepad++ isn't working correctly or plain crashing,
you probably encountered a bug. First check if you have the latest
version, each release Notepad++ gets improved and bugs get fixed
(unfortunately, sometimes added as well so always thread careful when
updating).
Then,
check if a plugin causes the trouble. Remove all plugins or start
with the command line option to disable all plugins and see if the
issue persists. If so:
Check
the forums: maybe other users noticed it as well and found a fix or
are in discussion.
Check
the Bug tracker
(https://sourceforge.net/tracker2/?group_id=95717&atid=612382):
maybe the bug is already detected and added to the list. Search for
it and if it's not there, you can add it and help the developers find
and fix it (always be very clear what the problem is, what causes it
and how to reproduce it. Crash reports are, unfortunately, currently
not very helpful, a description on how to reproduce the crash is).
