Windows 10 1903) How to change Default Encoding UTF-8 to ANSI In Notepad?
Hello, does anyone know if you can re-enable ANSI encoding by registry in the notepad, instead of the default UTF8 encoding, which is given since Windows 10 version 1903. ======================...
- It's suspected to be a bug in Windows and hasn't been fixed in four years, and the only alternative is to change the default editor to Notpad++ or change the encoding settings on save. Thanks, Microsoft.
cam_amoi I followed the procedure and entered 1 for ANSI. I then saved the file as an
ANSI file but it is still saving the files in UTF-8.
Go to regional options (From run window, run intl.cpl),
click on Administrative tab,
click "Change System Locale"
and make sure checkbox is off for "Beta: Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support" (requires reboot when changed)
bom99 Doesnt work.
