Describe the bug
With the plugin running, Notepad++ crashes after some period of use (sometimes it is 10 minutes, some times it is 30 minutes). Notepad++ closes suddenly, with no indication of anything going wrong if it is reopened.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install jN plugin 2.2.185.6 from plugin manager
  2. Open a number of documents (I use the "Use folder as workspace..." feature
  3. Keep using normally for few minutes
  4. Notepad++ suddenly closes with no warnings or errors

Expected behavior
Notepad++ should keep running

Screenshots

Environment

  • OS: Windows 10 64 bit
  • Notepad++ Version: 8.4.2 64 bit
  • jN Version [2.2.185.6]

Additional context
My post on Notepad++ forum: https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/23100/notepad-8-4-2-64-bit-suddenly-closes-for-no-reason/2?_=1655081837121

I have not extensively tested if the problem is with the plugin, but this is the only plugin I manually installed (Mime tools, converter, NppExport plugins were already installed, I did not touch anything in the default installation) and it seems to be fixed when I downgrade Notepad++ (currently using v8.2.1 64 bit). This behaviour is consistent with other forum posts related to latest Notepad++ installations crashing randomly.
