        Hello @matteo-salviato and All,

        Very easy with regular expressions !

        I supposed that your text contents usual double quotes " and not the Unicode chars “ and ” !

        Then :

        • Open the Replace dialog ( Ctrl + H )

        • SEARCH (?-si)"txt":\x20"(.+?)"

        • REPLACE "txt":\x20""

        • Tick the Wrap around option, preferably

        • Select the Regular expression search mode

        • Click on the Replace All button

        Best Regards,

        guy038
