Good Morning,
I think with notepad++ you need to ensure the nvda.po file is saved as
utf8 without bom
each time it is saved/committed.
Now that the poedit app module is included in main, maybe you can play
with poedit and see if it has become easier to use? Poedit ensures that
the po file is always saved in the correct format.
Best wishes.
