If you know how to use ctags.exe - download and compile it from the sources and after running ctags you'll be able to use `NppTags` and `TagLEET`, but if you will want to generate tags database from the editor's interface - it will be slow. The built `ctags.exe` version you can find in `Notepad++Portable\App\Notepad++64\ctags-p5.9.20210718.0` directory and you can setup `NppTags->Options...` path to `ctags.exe`destination.
