      I opened a couple of massive text files with extremely long lines that are crushing Notepad++ (to the point of unusable, had to kill it).

      I also have it set to automatically open previously opened documents on start.

      So now I’m kind of stuck. Is there a way (hacky or not) to erase the list of previously opened documents from outside of Notepad++ prior to starting it? Windows 7.

          If you are not familiar with DOS command line:
          Click on the start icon and type “Command” in the search.
          Click on Command Line. (A program atop your list.)
          In the command line type:
          cd
          This will get you to the C: prompt.
          then type:
          cd Program Files (x86)\Notepad++
          Then type:
          notepad++ -nosession
