**Important remark**: When the regular expression search mode is invoked, the red alert error message "Find: Invalid regular expression" appears **ONLY** when you hit the **Find Next** button. All other possible actions lead to simply notify you that no result occurs, whereas, in fact, your search regular expression is just malformed. So, always do a **Find Next** search first, to test the validity of your regular expression input.

Notepad++ uses a flashing of the Find dialog window and the main Notepad++ window itself (when the Find dialog is not open) to indicate that search text has not been found (or possibly that a **Wrap around** in the search has occurred). In general, if a search results in no matches, and the Find dialog window is open, that window will flash briefly as a failure indication. If the Find dialog window is NOT open, and a failed search is initiated (e.g. via **Find Next** on the **Search** menu), the main Notepad++ window will flash briefly, again, as an indicator of the lack of success. With the Find dialog window closed, but with **Wrap around** previously activated, a search that causes a wrap at an end of the file to occur will also cause the Notepad++ main window to flash. In addition, the system error bell will sound if a **Find Next** or **Replace** action results in the **Find what** text not being encountered; the bell cannot be disabled.

In addition, audible feeback will be provided if a **Find Next** or **Replace** action results in the **Find what** text not being encountered; the sound's volume level can be controlled/muted by configuring the Notepad++ application in the Windows "Volume Mixer".

If a search action is invoked by keyboard command with the Find dialog window open and input focus in the editing window, an unsuccessful search will result in input focus being changed to the Find window. Presumably, the user would want to conduct a different search at this point?
