Failure to load in machine with .net 4.5

[computHome]

My office machine Win10 only has .net 4.5 and it failed to load and it asked me to install .net 3.5 or lower, is there any way to load it with 4.5 since the machine couldn't install older version of software?

Apart from recompiling it yourself with a .Net 4.5 toolchain, no. I do not want to maintain multiple binaries for different .Net platforms.

Maybe, I will rewrite the whole plugin in native C++ to get rid of the .Net dependency. But this plan exists for several years already and it will likely remain a plan/wish for quite some time.

@computHome Actually you might try to add the following unzipped file near notepad++.exe. In theory it should force app to use .NET 4 notepad++.exe.config.zip

@behusoid Thanks, it works!
