I am not sure your phrasing accurately expresses the question you intended to ask.

Because, literally, what enables Notepad++ capable of “making an html” is that, as a text editor, it has the ability to open any text-based file, and edit the characters, with which you, as the human, can type the HTML code. (The same is true for any text editor, not just Notepad++.)

That’s an odd need.

However, my guess is that’s not really quite what you were asking for. I think you might have been asking more something along the lines of “how can I use Notepad++ to more efficiently make HTML code?”. In that case, I would recommend going to Plugins > Plugins Admin and install a few plugins:

HTML Tag = makes writing HTML easier
PreviewHTML = embeds a local web rendering engine into a Notepad++ panel, so that you can see a live “preview” of the rendered HTML in one panel as you edit the HTML file in the editor panel
XML Tools = gives you the power to “pretty print” and otherwise manipulate XML, which will also help with HTML

Notepad++ will never be a “WYSIWYG” editor for HTML – it won’t hide the code from you, and allow you to just use word-processor-like tools to “create a web page” without having to know HTML. If you choose to “make an html” with Notepad++, you are choosing to get into the nitty-gritty details of the HTML code. (If what you want is something to let you just graphically edit a website, you’re going to want a WYSIWYG editor like DreamWeaver, or to use something like WordPress or the gazillion other such content-generation packages that every web host gives you access to, for free or a fee, depending on their level of corporate self-interest; but we cannot help you with that.)

HTML Tag = makes writing HTML easier

Just so no one is disappointed, the original and primary use case for that plugin is actually reading (X/HT)ML, i.e., by making DOM trees easier to navigate. More recent versions do have additional features that may be useful in writing web documents, but it cannot, for example, scaffold an HTML page or insert markup snippets.

A better plugin for (simple) HTML generation would be WebEdit.

There’s also jn-npp-emmet, a JavaScript extension for the jN plugin (a.k.a “jn-npp-plugin”), which ought to be able to generate any kind markup that emmet can.
