Missing items in Notepad++ Menu

Question

This might be a bit off-topic question but I could not get help from anywhere else.

Earlier Notepad++ had Stream Comment and Toggle Block Comment option in the menu, but now I cannot find it. Is there anyway to add these options in the menu? Thanks.

Answer 1

In Notepad 6.3.2 they are in the menus, see Edit => Comment/uncomment. They are not available in the right-mouse context menu on my computer.

The context menu can be edited so you should be able add other commands as described in the support documentation, see http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/notepad-plus/index.php?title=Context_Menu

Answer 2

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++

In this directory rename contextmenu.xml to contextmenu2.xml or delete it .

Then run notepad++ again. You will see new contextmenu.
