    Hi! I have a color text issue with Notepad++, namely, in C documents, the keyword color doesn't display. I right-click the color display in the Style Configurator, and the color appears for the rest of the session but not the next session. How do I get the option the stick?

    Only thing that I can think of at the moment - did you put ticks in the "Enable global foreground & background colour" boxes and clicked "Save & Close"? Using the latest v7.5.1?

    Edited: Correct mis-spell

    They must be there because other colors are there. I'll check now[​IMG].

    They both are unchecked.

    They need to be checked and "Saved".

    I checked them and lost all of the syntax-highlighting. It didn't help. :(

    That's not the same window as my verson.7.5.1 - seen below. Have you referred to the link I gave?

    I just tried your link and found it unhelpful in my case. My problem is that just C files' keywords aren't keeping the color settings across sessions. I can change the color after right-clicking the color style's foreground color, but the change is lost when I close Notepad++. This is a cosmetic issue, but I like colors. :)

    I'm out of this thread because I like answers to simple questions such as "What version are you using?" when I'm trying to help. ;)

    I'm using 7.3.3.
