error message bug in v7.5.6 #4354

Description of the Issue

The second dialog box of the "file too big" in v7.5.6 (32-bit) says Can not open file "$STRT_REPLACE$". instead of Can not open file "c:\path\to\bigfile.txt".

(see Forum #15515. Forum user @ChillerThon reported the problem, and I was able to replicate it.)

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

  1. make a 1Gb file (or otherwise too large for 32bit Notepad++)
  2. run Notepad++ 7.5.6 32-bit
  3. open the 1Gb file bigfile.txt
  4. click OK on the File Open Problem => File is too big to be opened by Notepad++ dialog
  5. the second error that shows up is:
    Imgur
    This should list the name of the file, not $STRT_REPLACE$.
  6. Following those same steps in Notepad++ 7.5.4 32-bit, and I get
    Imgur
    This correctly lists the name of the file
