According to the newsletter from the developer it's the "End of World Edition". Biggrin

And the changes are:
- Fix find "\r\n" bug in RegExpr mode.
- Change "Delete file" command to "Move to Recycle Bin".
- Add Remove empty lines feature.
- Change document default value from ANSI to UTF8 w/o BOM.
- Enable Word-completion under CJK environment for unicode document.

The migration of configuration from Data\settings to Data\config misses ALL plug-in configuration. I think everything from Data\settings\plugins\config should be moved to Data\Config\plugins\config, including directories (so NppFTP config is moved).
