C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\notepad++.exe "C:\YOUR\DIRECTORY\tofile.txt"

or on 32 bit machine

C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe "C:\YOUR\DIRECTORY\tofile.txt"

Exclude the quotation marks obviously.

Do you need to open the window itself?

Because if you need to open te program. you can do a simple CMD

"C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe"

to open and create a file you can do this i think. if you have writing permission in the directory. i cannot test this but i think this is the way to create a file

C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe File.txt 

or

C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe -openSession <PathToYourFile>

Or do you need the Specific window?
