Search++ is a work in progress. Testing is still in progress and serious bugs may be present. Use with caution. That said, your feedback is welcome and very much appreciated. There is a discussion topic in the Notepad++ community, or you can create a GitHub issue. There is a help file.

  • Fix a critical error that caused ICU searches to crash Notepad++.
  • Fix unwanted characters appearing at the ends of lines in the Results list with Notepad++ rendering mode GDI.
  • Fix regression of line ending symbols being in text color instead of white space color, and switch the CRLF symbol in GDI mode to one that hopefully renders more consistently.

A warning from the 0.6 update that still holds: Be cautious using the Search in Files dialog to search large files (hundreds of megabytes or more) with the 32-bit version. It is entirely possible to run out of memory and crash Notepad++ without warning or any chance to recover anything.

To install Search++ download Search++-0.6.2-x86.zip or Search++-0.6.2-x64.zip, depending on whether you're using 32-bit or 64-bit Notepad++. Unzip the file to a folder named Search++ (the name must be exactly that, or Notepad++ will not load the plugin) and copy that folder into the plugins directory where Notepad++ is installed (usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\plugins for 32-bit versions or C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins for 64-bit versions).
