I downloaded the latest 64-bit notepad++ from the official website, and encountered two problems during the installation of the notepad++ plug-in:
1. In the plug-in management, after selecting the plug-in, the download button is grayed out and cannot be clicked, RT
Solution:
Search for "windows defender firewall", click "allow an application or feature through windows defender firewall"
Find whether Notepad++ is included in the allowed applications and functions (A), and whether there is a check mark in the network settings later. If there is no check mark, or there is no such option in this list, then no matter how you install it in the Notepad++ plug-in, it will not be successful. If there is no check mark, just select it. If it's not on the list, then keep reading.
Click "Change Settings", then click "Allow Other Applications", and then click "Browse" in the pop-up window to add an application, select the path of the notepad++ execution program (that is, the path of notepad++.exe), and click "Add" after selecting it. So far, problem 1 is solved.
2. Install the plug-in, after the download is complete, it prompts "plugin package is not found", RT
Reason: because the installation path of Notepad++ is not the default
Solution:
1. Go to the recycle bin to find the zip package of the downloaded plugin, then open the plugins folder in the notepad++ installation directory, and unzip the zip package to this path
2. Rename the decompressed folder to match the name of the .dll file in it
3. Restart Notepad++, you can
