I have Notepad++ 5.4.3 and I have Google Chrome installed.
In Notepad++, I know I can click on the Run menu; then browse for the .exe. But unfortunately, the only chrome.exe file I can find seems to be for the chromeframe for Internet Explorer.
Also, how can I remove the "Chrome" shortcut (which is not working) which I have added to the Run menu?
I get the access denied error, even though I have closed Notepadd++. Also, the links that I added to the Run menu inside Notepad++, do not appear in the xml file. Maybe I could copy the contents of the current shortcuts file to a new one and delete the current one. – systemovich – 2010-07-27T17:39:20.460
You get access denied error when trying to edit "C:\Program Files\NotePad++\shortcuts.xml"? Close notepad++ edit the shortcuts.xml file to what you want to have appear then open notepad++ and everything should reload fine. – jer.salamon – 2010-07-27T17:52:47.510
If you get 'access denied' when you try to edit shortcuts.xml, how do you know that the links you added are not in the file? Are you logged in as a restricted user? Try logging in as an admin. The links you entered in Notepad++ are probably in Settings > Shortcut Mapper > Run commands. – boot13 – 2010-07-28T14:50:09.963
@boot13, I can open the file and edit it, but I cannot save my edits, because of that "access denied" popup. I am logged in as admin. – systemovich – 2010-07-28T18:09:23.953
@jer.salamon, I copied this C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)" into the Run dialog, but nothing happened. Should I perhaps replace the " with something else when I paste it into the Run dialog? Thanks. – systemovich – 2010-07-28T18:14:10.620
I added the correct command to the answer. – jer.salamon – 2010-07-28T20:01:00.473
