How to Remove Empty Lines in Notepad++?

Use Built-in Functions

Notepad++ has built-in functions to help you quickly remove all empty lines in a file.

You can find this option in the menu:

Edit > Line Operations > Remove Empty Lines

There is also another menu item below Remove Empty Lines called Remove Empty Lines (Containing Blank Characters). This function will remove not only completely blank lines without any characters but also those lines with blank characters (such as whitespaces, tabs, etc.).

These two functions are very helpful when you have a lot of empty lines to deal with. Keep them in mind, or you can bookmark this guide for future reference.
