Description of the Issue
When I forgot map network drive or mount crypted volume, or any else with logical hard drive letter is unavailable (E:\ F:\ to Z:.) and run notepad++, then editor silently drops all opened files for that drive(s) without additional info, because paths are unavailable.
Steps to Reproduce the Issue
- in command line emulate network drive or crypted volume
1a. run cmd.exe
1b. mkdir C:\W (subdir for emulation *W:* drive, of course if *W:* is free on your system)
1c. subst W: C:\W (at now you have drive W . please do not close cmd.exe, it will be helpful later - open notepad++ , create new tab for text file, and write any text inside this tab
- write this file for example as W:\testfile.txt
- close notepad++ and run it again. you will see opened file testfile.txt , this is OK
- close notepad++
- click again cmd.exe window, and delete emulated drive by run subst W: /D
- open notepad++ again.
- this is all. you will not be noticed about lost path to W:\testfile.txt , and tab will not be open again.
Expected Behavior
I need some configuration for this one, by selecting between:
- silent do not open unavailable paths
- warning window, with info about unavailable paths, short info similar to 'please map network or crypto drives W:, X: etc.... and or select below...', with two buttons 'Do not open listed files' , and second 'Try again'.
- continuation to ad.2 , if still any paths are unavailable, do corrected list again described at point 2
Actual Behavior
currently default is silently abort opening tabs for unavailable paths
Debug Information
There is no debug. This behavior exist on all available versions notepad++
