You should report such issues upstream.

On a side note, it works fine here.

I'm guessing you have a notepad2.ini alongside notepad2.exe and it's overriding the one in the user directory, or something similar.

Or notepad2 doesn't have write access to the ini file, which might be the case on some systems.

@XhmikosR I tried it on three different computers 2x Windows 8.1 and 1x Windows 7.

@QWp6t I do have a notepad2.ini alongside notepad2.exe. It looks like this:

[Notepad2]
Notepad2.ini=%APPDATA%\Notepad2\Notepad2.ini

When I change a setting, the %APPDATA%\Notepad2\Notepad2.ini changes accordingly. So I guess that works how it should...

Hi!

Could it be, that you have the option "Reset if new file is opened." in the File Change Notification Dialog active?

This with this switch active, any new opened notepad-session is forced to mode "none"...

Regards

@oezgueremir Yes, that was it. I didn't get that... Thank you!
