Ever since I've updated to the latest notepad++ I have been experiencing random
crashes on several machines. Sometimes it happens when i copy and paste, sometimes
I'll have it minimized, bring it back up and it is locked up, and today it did
it while I was refreshing a page with a google map in it.. which was really
weird. Then I have to do the ctl+alt+del dance and kill it. I can't seem to
find anything specific I am doing to make this happen and have been watching
very closely for weeks now. Once again as i said this is happening on several
different machines all with Windows XP on them, there is definitely a bug there
and it seems to be some sort of random memory leak.

Did you try applying the procedures described
in http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/notepad-plus/index.php?title=Crashes
? Chances are that a plugin is misbehaving regrdless of what you are doing.

When a crash takes place, Notepad++ normally suggests creating a NppDump.dmp
file. If you get the option, accept, and (7)zip it to donho. Both action courses
will help (a plugin may be misbehaving because of a bug of its own or because
it exposes a bug elsewhere)

CChris

I'll do the plugin dance tonight at home when I'm not on company time. No chance
of getting a dump because the program simply locks up, no way for it to do the
smart stuff. It sure looks like a memory related issue to me and next time it
does it I will take a screenshot so you can see what I mean. Some of the menus
go plain white etc like a memory leak would cause. It just did it to me again
a few minutes ago, all I was doing was editing a php page and
refreshing/minimizing./maximizing the page over and over. It also seems to do
it if I do like a copy and paste and I click/move REALLY fast above the program.
I get this on any machine randomly throughout a day (in an average 8 hour day
it usually happens between 3 and 5 times)

No problem at all, It's always a pleasure to get the compliment :)

Could you remove ONLY Change Mark plugin from all of your PC at work to see
if it's the culprit?

Thank you in advanced.
Don

Can I rather suggest LEAVING only the change marker on instead? That way, we'd
know the crash is either in the CM or in the core...

Today I posted a BUG N++ hang that confirms the change mark plugin (the only
plugin active) under N++ 5.4.5 unicode as the cause of a random hang (50% of
a dual core cpu) after a save

Don I am now testing the reverse setup as you suggest.

I have had a similar crash and have managed to capture the notepad++.exe.hdmp
file (26Mb). Is that any use to you? There was also a mdmp file but I couldn't
capture it because it was locked by the Windows Crash Utility.

Thx. Gonville
