"move to new instance" is greyed out.. (also i'd rather not have to do that for every individual one but for all). also, if I try dragging a tab out e.g. onto the desktop, I click hold move the mouse, i get the changed mouse cursor, but then I release the mouse button and the tab is still there. split screen isn't what i'm looking for unless you can fit 20 tabs in there (pref) automatically

The only way I can replicate this is if you haven't yet saved the file. Try saving it first?

they are set to autosave. You can replicate it if you download the autosave plugin for notepad++ so they save automatically.

the reason i'm using notepad++ like this is because Saving takes a while 'cos gotta save each file to the correct location, and so I leave that.. sometimes for exampel with notepad I might seee look these 3 files are for this directory, and I can see them all simultaneously, and i'll do file.saveas/ctrl-s) and then paste the DIR in.But still problem with regular notepad is if I don't save and it crashes,I lose it all and it has no autosave optionSo typing into untitled and i'm screwed when it crashes.With notepad++ I have autosave m just create files and write them wthout worryin abouta crash
