I have notepad++ 5.8.2 and I was trying to remove all lines starting with 'Processed XXXXX total records' where XXXXX is a various number.
I tried to CTRL+H and put 'Processed.$ in Find what selecting Regular Expression and putting blank in Replace with but it doesn't even find those lines Processed. Did I do something wrong in regex expression to find and replace them?

Try Processed.*$ instead of Processed.$ – Jamby May 05 '14 at 12:09

This will help you:
- Press CTRL + H
- Select
Regular Expressionat the bottom - Find ^Processed \d+ total records.*?
- Click Replace All
After, you may want to clean all the blank lines:
- Find ^\s*
- Click Replace All

'^Processed \d+ total records.*?' worked for me. not sure why '?' is causing problem! – Digital_Reality Mar 29 '20 at 14:54

Depending on what eol designation you use this will delete the line, and leave no blank line.
^Processed\d+ total records.*$\n or
^Processed\d+ total records.*$\r\n

Nevermind,... found it right now... Had just to do .Processed.*$ with Regular Expression and it replaced with blank line then removed blank lines with TextFX integrated plugin

Notepad++ has that feature without a plugin, it's under Edit->Line Operation->Remove Empty Lines – Jamby May 05 '14 at 12:24

Jamby, not in version 5.8.2 at least...I have only Duplicate current lines, Split lines, Join lines, Move Up Current Line and Move Down Current Line... – Luigino May 05 '14 at 12:27
