I've got 50 to 60 files in a directory that I need to concatenate into a single file on a regular basis.
I thought about using notepad++ thinking there was probably a plug-in that would help but haven't been able to find one.
Any other thoughts?

To choose the merge option, click the arrow next to the Merge button and select the desired merge option. Once complete, the files are merged. If there are multiple files you want to merge at once, you can select multiple files by holding down the Ctrl and selecting each file you want to merge.
There is no folder merge button to combine multiple folders– you need to manually go into every directory, press Ctrl + A to select all files, create new folders at the destination, and copy-paste the files.
Assuming these are text files (since you are using notepad++) and that you are on Windows, you could fashion a simple batch script to concatenate them together.
For example, in the directory with all the text files, execute the following:
for %f in (*.txt) do type "%f" >> combined.txt This will merge all files matching *.txt into one file called combined.txt.
