I like when a search functionality tells me there's no more results when reaching the end of the file, rather than looping to the beginning of the file.

How can I do that in Notepad++? I can't find this option in the preferences menu.

    I wanted the opposite - Notepad++ to search both ways rather than only Up or Down, and your answer helped me (in my case I had to Check the option). Thank you!
