Replace Unicode values with characters (e.g. \u00e9 with é)
-
Hello, I have text containing Unicode values that are preceded by “\u”. These occur among “normal” characters. Is it possible to replace these with their proper Unicode equivalents? For example, “ADAMS, Andr\u00e9as” -> “ADAMS, Andréas”. I searched, but couldn’t find any existing topics discussing this.

welcome to the notepad++ community, @Morney-le-Roux
you need to install the plugin
HTML Tag, by using the built inplugins adminon newer versions of notepad++, or using the oldplugin manager, if you are on notepad++ 7.5.9 or below.once installed, select your partial or complete text, like “ADAMS, Andr\u00e9as” and go to
plugins > html tag > decode js, to get “ADAMS, Andréas”.best regards.
