Default file encoding on Win 10
Answered
Can somebody tell me please why IntelliJ IDEA has default encoding set to windows-1252 on Win 10? I have a project before the end and now I found out that files are in this stupid encoding? WHY????

You can change it in File | Other Settings | Settings for new projects.
No I cant. I tried it few times but is is still on windows-1252 Who came with this idea? I am afraid it will have problem with asserting utf8 text on the pagees...
Just verified that it works. Changed the default settings, created the new project, project encoding for the new project is UTF-8. Please share the video showing the steps you perform and the results.
You can also change the default encoding by adding -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 in Help | Edit Custom VM Options, then restart IntelliJ IDEA.
Hmm now it works. I swear I tried it few times before and it was still on the windows-1252. Thanks. My bad.
