Plugins -> XML Tools -> Pretty Print (XML only - with line breaks)

How about Plugins - XML Tools - Pretty Print (XML only - with line breaks)? Default shortcut Ctrl+Alt+Shift+B. This should make your XML very readable.

Newer versions of NPP require external installation of tidy. I've basically stopped using it and adopted XML Tools – mlhDev – 2016-09-16T14:35:12.993
It is grayed out. It is not working but thanks. – Love – 2012-07-27T21:09:04.673
What NPP version do you have? I had a problem with libtidy.dll. – coelhudo – 2012-07-27T21:25:36.753

If you don't find the plugin you want to use (eg.: XML Tools), just add it by clicking:
Plugins -> Plugin Manager -> Show Plugin Manager
Find, select and install it. When you re-open Notepad++, it'll be listed under the Plugins menu.
After that, do what they've already said: Plugins -> XML Tools -> Pretty Print (XML only - with line breaks)

Better option is:
Plugins -> XML Tools -> Linarize XML

2Does not this function format the XML back to a single line (i.e. contrary to what was asked for)? – pabouk – 2013-11-07T08:36:42.243
1It seems that version 6.5 doesn't have this plugin :( – St.Shadow – 2013-11-29T10:31:01.403
