I have been closely following every Notepad++ release since I joined the forum in 2015, and have never seen an official MSI.Īnd posting a screenshot of a file called “Notepad++7_9_1.msi” does not prove that the MSI was downloaded from an official source. It has not been officially released as an MSI in my memory. If you downloaded from anywhere else, we make no guarantees about it, and will not support said in Is it still possible to get the MSI version of the installer?:Īnd never could find.

(Assuming you downloaded an official installer EXE. You just run the EXE, and it extracts the notepad++.exe and config files to the right place.
#NOTEPAD++ DOWNLOAD MSI ZIP#
You don’t “unwrap” the installer EXE using a zip program (although that is possible to do, because installer EXE use the zip format for storing the individual files). Unwrapping the EXE only gets me notepadd++.exe and a bunch of config and settings files.

The easiest way to get an official download is going to, and going to the newest version listed there. That is the official installation file, if it is downloaded from one of the official sources. Can you point us to this source? (If it’s not in the domain, or from the official /notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus repo, it wasn’t official) So, I don’t know where you got an MSI for Notepad++, but it wasn’t from an official source that I can find. And they are also officially archived here, which also doesn’t show an MSI. It gets its files from this github tag “v7.9.1”, which also doesn’t have any MSI.

The official v7.9.1 download page is here, and it doesn’t list any MSI. I cannot remember a time when there was an official MSIĪn MSI version was available as recently as version 7.9.1 Is it still possible to get the MSI installation files for Notepad++ 8.4.3?
