This situation could also result from the use of the EditorConfig plugin, depending upon how it is configured with the .editorconfig files. Just sayin.

Thanks a lot for your advice!

Great stuff guys. It works like a charm! Thank you! :-)

Thank you, andrecool-68, Works great. Hello guy038, That option does it very good as well, thank you. Thanks Alan.

Since HexEditor hadn’t been officially updated since 2009, @chcg has made an unofficial 64-bit port of HexEditor available at https://github.com/chcg/NPP_HexEdit/releases, with a couple of bugfix releases. The most recent x64 zipfile is the one you’ll want. For a normal Notepad++ installation, unzip HexEditor.dll into c:\Program Files\Notepad++\Plugins\HexEditor\HexEditor.dll, then reload Notepad++.

@PeterJones Thank you! You helped me a lot with this.

@mahesh-ageer You didn’t say anything about lines that already had some amount of spaces at their ends. Try to be complete with your problem description. I might be inclined to do that all in one step by searching for \x20*$ and replacing that with a single space.

Hi all, I found solution! 1.Add 10 spaces at end of each lines in file X.REN by command $ 2.Copy rectangular selection 10 x number of lines in file X.REN 3.Mark rectangular selection 10 x number of lines on target file in requested position and paste it.

@PeterJones said in Mass replace inside file at once: merge them manually in shortcuts.xml For you, yes, but for a casual Notepad++ user, maybe not. I was just pointing out that a bit of serious concentration when recording macros will go a long way in helping out. :-)

Glad to hear that it works! You don’t owe me anything. Just pay it forward to someone else when the time comes :)

Hello, @lionelanh97, @terry-r and All, @terry-r, I don’t think that the look-ahead structure, (?= //) is, even, mandatory ! This regex S/R should be enough : SEARCH (?-si)//Converted.+\K //.+ REPLACE Leave EMPTY As it searches the greatest range of chars .+ between the string //Converted and the string ' //', without the quotes ! Best Regards, guy038

@Alan-Kilborn said in How to open specific files in different folder where root folder might be varied. Open File in Solution is my temporary solution.: It sounds to me like a scripting plugin is needed to solve this problem. Batch file scripting. The plugin-less scripting! :-)

@PeterJones Thanks for the reply!

@Simon-Belmar Sort first, then remove consecutive duplicates? See Edit menu, Line Operations sub-menu for some tools available for you?

Thanks PeterJones! Works perfectly

The simple answer (that you would no like) is: in Preferences->Backup disable Remember current session for next run. Essentially Notepad++ deals with files and their paths. Notepad++ is not aware that some specific path refers to a network share. The hang you observe is until Windows network stack give up with timeout. Perhaps if you did use drive letter Windows would realize that the letter is unconnected faster than with UNC.
