Can Notepad++ convert multiple opened files to ANSI (encoding)?
I have 50 text files which need to be converted from utf-8 bom to ANSI. In Notepad++ We can do it with single file, but I want all opened files to be converted to ANSI in one short way. Is there any option there?

It seems that u need a way in command line to do it. Have you looked for a powershell solution?

Suppose that your utf8bom files are in c:temputf8
I am saving the ansi files to c:tempansi
At command line,
> powershell
PS> get-item c:temputf8*.* | foreach-object {get-content $_ | out-file ("c:tempansi" + $_.Name) -encoding default}
PS> exit
>
What it does is that for each file in c:temputf8, get its content and output to a file with the same filename in c:tempansi with the Windows system default encoding, which is equivalent to ANSI you meant.
get-content command here can read the text without you specifying utf8 with or without bom.
