Changing permissions on an elevated task installed by the elevated installers service is difficult at best. I used Control Panel » Programs and Features to uninstall Notepad++. Then went to the Notepad++ website and downloaded the zipped version with no installer. Then used Windows Explorer to extract all files to the path C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++ – the same as the original installer path.
Right click, New » Folder, enter Notepad++.Then I created a folder group in the All Programs section of the Start menu. Then I used another Explorer window to create a shortcut to notepad++.exe, then dragged and dropped that shortcut into the C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Notepad++, answering the Destination Folder Access Denied dialog box with Continue.
Next disable the AutoUpdate function for Plugins on Notepad++, like most software these days "Updates" are often "hostile" and carry a real degree of risk. It is not a service so it is riskier to trust developers to properly test their code.įor an application I prefer to know when an update occurs.
