Copied \AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\backup to another computer but files not showing

I copied files in \AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\backup to another computer (new win10 SSD) but only new 1 is showing when I launch Notepad++. This used to work fine - has anything changed with the last few releases?

Pic of the 2 files listed in \backup\

I don't see any difference between the 2 files yet new 1 was created on the new computer and new 13 was copied.

Any ideas?

Someone else had the same question recently. Answer:

"...it isn’t the presence of files in that folder that cause Notepad++ to open them; it is the presence of the entries for those files in session.xml". I changed my username slightly with the new system and so, although I had copied session.xml, it was silently failing due to the different username in the file paths.
