Notepad++ edit previously opened sessions/files

Sometimes I have so many or too large files opened with Notepad++ (GitHub) --> it stops starting the next time and hangs.

To resolve this, simply either delete or edit the session.xml-file:
C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\session.xml 
or
%AppData%\Notepad++\session.xml 

Each entry starting with "<File lang.." and ending with "/>" is a previously opened file. Example:
<File lang="Normal Text" mapIsWrap="
8...] 
firstVisibleLine="0"/> 

By deleting entries like this, you throw out that the file is automatically opened the next time when starting Notepad++.
🚩Hint: Delete the last entry, this resolves most times the issue.
