### "The Best Open Source Text Editor" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *26 June 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: As an IT Organization individual, Notepad++ is assisting me increasingly more with the everyday work. Some things which I like the most are,&#10;&#10;1. The Notepad++ reserve keeps numerous pages dynamic regardless of whether I neglected to save and close it.&#10;&#10;2. Notepad++ shows the progression of the content/program, which assists with forestalling committing errors.&#10;&#10;3. Bunch arrangement and arranging are more helpful in any event, while working in Succeed. Duplicate to Notepad++ and do it without any problem.&#10;&#10;4. It provides additional features such as checksum generation, ascii to hex and vice versa conversions which are very handy for developers.
> 
> **Cons**: The main issue with Notepad++ is that it does not support MacOS . Also , I noticed that Notepad++ struggles with big binary files. It might get slower, or messier when dealing with those .
> 
> My overall Experience has been really amazing . Can't tell you how much I am addicted to this tool . It just makes my day every time I open a file on this . The classic UI also is one of the main reasons for me to still be using this after so many years \!

### "Notepad++ review" — 3.0/5

> **Priyanka** | *4 June 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Notepad ++ is better version of classic notepad.&#10;The ui is far better that that, whenever we write code number is displayed so it makes easier to read the code, debug the code by checking the line numbers.&#10;It highlights the start and end brackets making it easy.
> 
> **Cons**: It is better than classic notepad but it lags behind various new editors like vscode and many more. It does not support extension/integration like vscode . It is useful if we only want to take note of anything or else we have something to run locally. But still it lags behind lots of things.. as from developer perspective we require other tools as well simply using this tool will not work. Even new tools gives recommendations while writing code
> 
> Okay okay. I will only use if i want to take notes or my task is very simple like writing a java file or something. But for complex task not useful.

### "Notepad++ is Everything You Need in an Editor" — 5.0/5

> **Gene** | *5 January 2026* | Financial Services Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Notepad++ offers great value and outstanding features.  It allows me to have multiple windows open at once for editing.  I love the fact that it highlights keywords when I use the appropriate file extension.
> 
> **Cons**: It seems as a default, it assumes the file is a text file and then sometimes I have to go to the finder and rename the file extension.
> 
> I love using Notepad++.  It has been my go to editor for editing SQL and C Sharp code.   I prefer to edit in Notepad++ and then copy paste into Visual Studio for my SQL code.
