That's the .DXQ file format. In my experience, WordPad (not Notepad)
does a fine job with search and replace with these files, but I'm
sure there are lots of third-party text editors that would be more
powerful. The problem with the LOTW: stuff is that the text in each
record is unique, so a straight search and replace won't work. I'm
not aware of a text editor with a search and replace function that
can find "LOTW: <arbitrary text of unknown length>" and replace the
entire string with a blank. Do you know of any that can do this?
