If the Quick Notepad++ Setup for Python isn't your cup of tea, here's a full-blown setup you can try to make it world whole again as a Python dev.
Step 1
Verify Python installation on the system. Open cmd and type:
python --version
If python is not yet installed, get it here.
Step 2
Install "NppExec" plugin inside notepad++. (Skip this if you already done it)
Step 3
Go to "plugins" --> "NppExec" --> click on "Execute"
When the command window pops up, add the following script and save it with a new name.
NPP_SAVE
cd $(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)
python $(FILE_NAME)
Step 4
Create menu item and hotkey to run the python program:
Go to "plugins" --> "NppExec" --> click on "Advanced options"
Then, go to "settings" --> "shortcutmapper" and follow the instructions to create a shortcut.
Step 5
Test run any python program and voila!
