@SinghRajenM

nice find and very intriguing.

i can confirm and reproduce your discovery on all my current test setups, notepad++ 7.5.5, 7.5.9, 7.6, 7.6.2 and 7.6.3, installed as well as portable, both x86 and x64.

it will probably be the same behaviour on all older versions, that have a status bar at the find window.
(i don't see this character junk on e.g. version 5.9.3, because it is so old, that it didn't have the find status bar implemented yet)
