Question in title. And going forward, isn't it better to not include any 3rd party software at all?

Thanks and if you are open to suggestion, I'd suggest not providing any text editor at all.
I've made custom studies and export bar data, but I have never needed Notepad++ because I open the files in my preferred editor.

The editor we have been providing, is safe, but it is now removed in newer releases.
