How to go to the bottom of the file on startup in Notepad++

No. But you have two options:

  • Notepad++ is GNU. Get the sources, patch, build.
  • Open the file, hit Ctrl+End

If you open files from a shortcut or command line, you can add flags to specify the line number and column to place the cursor, e.g.

"notepad++.exe" -n12 -c34 license.txt

(note no spaces between -n/-c and line/column numbers).

To open the file at the bottom, use a very large line number, e.g.

"notepad++.exe" -n999999 filename

You can not only see the updated file but also always shift to the updated line i.e. e.o.f. like in case of viewing logs.

Settings -> Preferences -> MISC

Tick **Update silently**

Tick **scroll to the last line after update**.
