[edit] Disable Auto Updater
"Thanks to GUP, (Generic Updater for win32) project (see http://sourceforge.net/projects/gup-w32/ and http://gup-w32.sourceforge.net/) Notepad++ v4.6 and later has the capacity to search and install the update package (if available) from Internet. Only Installer integrates the auto-updater module (optional). So if you use zipped version, you have to download GUP from its project page, create "update" directory in Notepad++ installed directory, unzip the package into it then edit gup.xml file."
Delete or rename the "updater" folder in the Notepad++ application folder to disable automatic updates:
<install cmd='%COMSPEC% /c rmdir /S /Q "%PROGRAMFILES%\Notepad++\updater"' /> <upgrade cmd='%COMSPEC% /c rmdir /S /Q "%PROGRAMFILES%\Notepad++\updater"' />
