Markdown files already open in Notepad++ (even the latest version) will not show the newly installed styles until the file itself is closed and reopened. Restarting Notepad++ doesn't update the style shown.

I spent longer than I care to admit on figuring out why the newly installed markdown style definition file (markdown.blackboard.udl.xml) wasn't having an effect on the markdown file I'd opened before installing the style.

I'm using the Windows x64 version of Notepad++ 7.9.1.
