How do I know my types.xml file was changed?

Working with XML files often involves revisions. Notepad Plus Plus offers a handy built-in tool to help you track those changes.

Here's a quick tip:

- Head over to the **Plugins** menu and select **Plugin Manager**. - Look for the **Compare** plugin and install it. This will add a powerful comparison feature to your Notepad++ experience.

With the Compare plugin installed, you can easily compare your original XML file with the one you've just changed. This makes it a breeze to identify any modifications you've made, ensuring you haven't accidentally introduced any errors.

**Bonus Tip:** While the Compare plugin is fantastic, you can also use the familiar **Ctrl+F** shortcut to find specific elements within your files. This can be helpful for quickly comparing individual entries between the original and edited versions.

By taking advantage of these features, you can streamline your XML editing workflow and maintain clear control over your revisions.
