[Bug] Some characters do not surround but delete text instead

Highlighting text and then typing the backtick character ` does not work and replaces the selected text with a single `. However, all other characters available by default ('"<([{ and matching closing characters) work just fine.

Additional characters defined in SurroundSelection.ini (placed in the same folder as the .dll file) do not work either.

My version info:

Notepad++ v8.4.6   (32-bit)
Build time : Sep 25 2022 - 19:55:26
Path : C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
Command Line : 
Admin mode : OFF
Local Conf mode : OFF
Cloud Config : OFF
OS Name : Windows 10 Enterprise (64-bit) 
OS Version : 21H2
OS Build : 19044.2130
Current ANSI codepage : 1252
Plugins : 
    SurroundSelection (1.4.1)

This occurs for different language modes (I tried plaintext, markdown and python) and encodings (I tried UTF8 and ANSI). I use an English KB layout.

Please let me know if I can provide you with additional information.

I can't reproduce any aspect of this issue, either using SurroundSelection 1.4.1 or a development build.

See if maybe this patched version works better:

Additional characters defined in SurroundSelection.ini (placed in the same folder as the .dll file) do not work either.

The INI file should be saved as $(NPP_DIR)\plugins\Config\SurroundSelection.ini
