NotePad++ only runs as Administrator or not at all

windows-7 notepad++

I have the same problem after upgrade to NPP 6.9.9, and this fix resolved the issue for me:

Right-click on notepad++.exe, Properties, Compatability. Uncheck "Run this program as an administrator". You may need administrator privileges to be able to do this.
