Notepad++ open in same window position and size every time

Is there a way I can get Notepad++ to open with the same size and position every time I open it? I'm looking for similar functionality to Sticky Window Position in Notepad2.

Solution 1:

No there is no such customization available by default or with plugins/addons in notepad++ ..

But you can make use of windows tweeking tools like Autosizer, it's free!

Solution 2:

If your installation was with all defaults, there's a config file in your %APPDATA% folder you can check/edit to make this set correctly.

Open "%APPDATA%\Roaming\Notepad++\config.xml" file in a text editor, and look for a line like this:

 <GUIConfig name="AppPosition" x="0" y="0" width="1024" height="900" isMaximized="no" />

Note that mine has the width and height settings set for a much more visible window - you'll want to adjust this relative to your typical screen layout. I went with 1024x900 because I use this on a laptop screen AND an external screen - one has a max rez of 1600x900 and the other is 1600x1200 so I compromised.

hope that's useful to you! Good luck!
