#35 Access Violation when closing tabs

[Jason Bowen]

I'm seeing an "Access violation" pop-up on Notepad++ v7.5.4.

From what I've been able to gather so far, the issue seems to be with the Compare plugin. If I compare two small files, I can close both tabs (Ctrl+W) with now issue. With two 10 kB files, I get the "Access violation" pop-up. The original files I was working with were 54 kB. I'm not sure if the size of the file actually matters, but I couldn't reproduce the issue with two three-line files.

I've attached the files I was using for testing.
doc1-1k.txt
doc1-10k.txt
doc2-1k.txt
doc2-10k.txt

I've also tried just opening two files in separate views to see if this was the issue, rather than the Compare plugin itself, but I can open files in separate views and close them without issue.
