In Notepad++ version 8.6.3, a regression was identified and subsequently fixed. When two documents are displayed side by side, clicking into the unfocused content no longer activates it as the current document. This regression has been resolved in version 8.6.4. We apologize for any inconvenience caused.

Re: Notepad++ Is A Proper Text Editor
Notepad++ v8.6.5 has been released.
News v8.6.5 released and Download v8.6.5.2024-03-30
To address a performance issue of “Replace All” in previous version 8.6.4, Notepad++ no longer triggers SCN_MODIFIED and other Scintilla notifications during the “Replace All” action. Consequently, some plugins that rely on Scintilla’s notifications may malfunction after a “Replace All” operation. To rectify this regression, a new notification called NPPN_GLOBALMODIFIED has been implemented in Notepad++ v8.6.5. Plugin developers should monitor NPPN_GLOBALMODIFIED alongside SCN_MODIFIED, if SCN_MODIFIED is already monitored in the plugin. For additional information about NPPN_GLOBALMODIFIED, please refer to this link: https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org ... tification
The session loss problem and the data loss due to the power outages issue are also addressed in this release.
There are more enhancements & bug-fixes.
