I recently updated my Windows 7 computer with NotePad++ ver. 6.6.9. To do the update I had to run it as Administrator. Now, every time I run Notepad++, it wants to run as Administrator or not at all. I have checked the shortcuts and they are not marked to "Run as Administrator". The problem with this is that NotePad++ can't "see" any of my mapped drives. This is very annoying. How can I get NotePad++ to open normally?
1Uninstall it then install it as the Administrator and confugure it to be ran by any user – Ramhound – 2014-10-22T17:00:03.977
1Tried that. At no point does it give me that option. Where would I configure it? – OldDog – 2014-10-23T18:46:32.357
Same problem for me. I've tried: 1) unchecking Run as Admin, 2) http://superuser.com/questions/547810 (Troubleshoot Compatibility), 3) running in Win 7 compatibility mode as suggested here, and 4) uninstalling and re-installing NP++. The problem first occurred when I started the NP++ installer but didn't run it as admin. After the installation failed Windows asked me if I wanted to re-run as admin and I said yes. Then it installed with this problem.
