La mejor manera es configurar Notepad ++ para que se ejecute como administrador. El problema con eso es que rompe la opción de clic derecho. Así que hice un reemplazo a la opción de clic derecho que elimina la anterior. La mejor parte de mi solución es que lo agregué a la configuración del Directorio en el Registro. Entonces, ahora puede hacer clic derecho en una carpeta y elegir Editar con Notepad ++ y se abrirán todos los archivos en Notepad ++ :). Hago mucha programación VBScript. Eso me facilita editar todos mis archivos haciendo cambios globales cuando se me ocurre un nuevo método para hacer algo o cambiar un objeto.
Mi VBScript realiza una copia de seguridad de las claves del registro antes de cambiarlas. No configura Notepad ++ como administrador, por lo que debe hacerlo haciendo clic derecho en el ejecutable de Notepad ++ y cambiándolo para que se ejecute como administrador. Estoy empezando a investigar sobre cómo hacer que esto se ejecute como administrador. Cuando se me ocurra eso, editaré mi publicación para que te dé la opción de editar como Administrador o editar normalmente.
