Occuring since update to Notepad++ 8.0:

  • notepad++ is not running
  • double-click any associated file to open it in notepad++ (not even a big file)
  • observe message box: "wm_create: bad allocation", notepad++ does not start
  • keep trying, after a couple of times it may actually work, or it may not
  • go to notepad++ plugins folder, rename folder "BigFiles" to "BigFiles.bak"
  • try again, now it works

I am trying to replicate your issue, but no luck so far. Did it ever work for you or it always crash? Are you on 32bit or 64bit?

My steps:

  1. Installed Notepad++ 8.0 64bit
  2. Double-click on an associated file
    I don't see an error.
    I will try to delete the plugin and see if it is happening only during fresh install.

I have Notepad++ 8.1.3 by now. I reactivated the BigFiles plugin. Can't reproduce the issue anymore. 🤷‍♂️
