%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Helios\TextPad\8\
  ConfigState.xml
  GUIState.xml

Of course, you don't need to type the already typed part of the name again. You can copy it from the "File name" text box (it's already selected) and paste it as (the beginning of) the new filename.

OK. Thanks for the help. I found the "block selection" using SHIFT on the second click. I do not like too much the toggle mode vs like in Word but it does the job. Kudos You don't have to toggle a mode. You can press Alt and drag the mouse from one end of the selection to the other, just ...
