hey folks, i have a problem. when ever i use notepad++ lets say for permissionsEX. all that comes up is randomness. can you guys tell me how to fix that?
That kind of looks like you are trying to open up the .jar? Are you editing the config files or the jars?
Place that jar in your plugins folder and run the server. Then in your plugins folder go in the permissions ex folder and the files with.yml on the end are what you want to edit
Well he kind of did (to the best of his ability). The file states in the first line that it's the .jar file. He's moving the jar file to his desktop and then trying to open the jar file in notepad. there should be a plugins folder inside your bukkit folder... put the jar in there. Start and stop the server. You will then notice that the addon has created a folder inside the plugins folder... named after itself. Go inside that and you will see the files you can edit. They will end with .yml.
oi... yes im editing the config! im not asking for help with permissions, i allready know that stuff. all i want is how to fix the notepad++ im not editing the .jar im editing the configs im not.... im editing the config EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

there is no extract, all there is, is 3 things that are in winrar forum. extract here, extract files, and extract to permissionsEX. i tried all three. they didnt work.
right click on it and select "extract to PermissionsEx-1.19.3-package(1)" when you are opening it in notepad++ you are trying to edit the zip file. here's what i don't understand, windows has native support for zip compression, doubleclicking on that file should have opened up an explorer window. but somehow you've managed to remove that association.
First, remove winrar.. yuck Second, download 7zip. Third, extract the .zip by right clicking: 7zip -> Extract Here. Fourth, edit the .yml files with notepad, not .jar or .zip!
