Removing empty lines in Notepad++

Question

How can I replace empty lines in Notepad++? I tried a find and replace with the empty lines in the find, and nothing in the replace, but it did not work; it probably needs r

Answer 1

This worked for me:

1. Press ctrl + h (Shortcut for replace)
2. Write one of the following regex in find what box. [\n\r]+$ or ^[\n\r]+
3. Leave Replace with box blank
4. In Search Mode, select Regex
5. Click on Replace All
   
   Done!
