This version can only be installed via Plugin Manager or manually. The plugin's own embedded updater will be able to check and perform future updates after v1.7.8 is installed.

Notepad++ x64 does not have PluginManager included by default. You will need to bring it manually. Follow the official Plugin Manager deployment instructions.

This is the first truly portable release. The same plugin binaries are running on both x86 and x64 versions of Notepad++. Special thanks to @kbilsted for his excellent kbilsted/NotepadPlusPlusPluginPack.Net x64 compatible Notepad++ managed hosting solution.
