Development Apps Support

Hi Guys,

I am getting this error when trying to update to Notepad++ 8.9.6.2:
The downloaded copy of Notepad++ is not valid and can not be installed. This could be due to an incomplete download or other network issue. Please try running the updater again when complete.

It's probably a hash problem.

Thanks!

Hi,
I installed CudaText Portable (PAF) v1.234.0.2 with the intention of updating it to the latest version and then creating a new updated PAF executable.
After the update, I ran PortableApps Installer v3.9.16.0 and got this error:

Hi,
i have found 2 (two) folders 'cloud' inside:
- C:\PortableApps\Notepad++Portable\App\Notepad++
- C:\PortableApps\Notepad++Portable\App\Notepad++64
every folder 'cloud' contains a file 'choice' - without extension - with this string:
--> 'C:\PortableApps\Notepad++Portable\Data\Config'

I installed Notepad++ using PortableApps Platform. My Notepad++ was opened if I looked for updates. A NPP update was reported but no process check was proceeded and if I start the app after the update the version is still 8.9.1

InstallerWizard.nsi
Line 1268: Correct win version number should be "11"
btw latest version of innounp.exe is 2.67

all suspected files for settings are 1.5h old and i just changed settings.
i'm helpless which file has settings, nor config.ini, Notepad++PortableSettings or whatever is right this way.
i even searched all folders for todays changes to find the right file but same time stamps, from extract or first run time.
its no fun tring to set all from my mind each time.
where are my settings really saved?
thx

The updater integrated into Notepad++ has allowed itself to be infiltrated by malware, which has been installed on some PCs. The developer of the powerful open-source text editor is responding with an update to Notepad++ v8.8.9.

See details here: heise.de

Users currently have to perform the update manually. I suppose, that this won't work properly with the portableapps version, as some files are supposed to be different.

i installed shortly Notepad++ 8.8.8 Portable and noticed there is no Data in 'Data' Folder.
it was before 5 folders there with 4mb size.
i did a fresh install, so i think its missing in the package.
after start and close i get 2 folders, config+settings and a ini file.
dont there need to be a themes folder etc?
or did i sthg wrong?
thx

i setted all colors and settings new and the settings ini has only 5 lines (155bytes), so
i think it is saved elsewhere. i thought this is the settings file but i seem to be wrong
could it be config.xml? with 70lines and 21 the word color
we need to examine this
UPDATE it is the config.xml, other file was crash file. added answer/solution.
thx

The portable installer for Notepad++ 8.8.2 is rejected by Microsoft BitDefender and quite some more others:

NPP portable 8.8.2 installer on VirusTotal

Maybe you can check, what triggered this?

Regards and keep up the nice work!
