How can I replace characters on the hexadecimal level in Notepad++?

I have a file with some characters that can not be displayed in UTF-8 (problem with ANSI to UTF-8 conversion) and would like to replace these with the correct characters.

Notepad++ replace (Ctrl + H) can not distinguish these characters.

You can use a hexadecimal code to find and replace in the Find dialog box, with Search Mode is set to Regular expression. Use the following search expressions as an example:

Find what: \x{0A} # Finds a line feed

Find what: \x{0D} # Finds a carriage return
