Description of the Issue
If you open Notepad++ as an administrator, minimize it, right-click on any file and choose the “Edit with Notepad++” context menu option, you will see in the Windows taskbar that Notepad++ window is now active, but it didn't get restored. You have to click on the Notepad++ icon to bring up its window to see the file you just opened. This works normally if you run N++ WITHOUT admin rights.
