Hi, there is no setting in PSPad to adjust the encoding indivitually while opening, but after opening a file with an unappropriate encoding (if the autodetection or defaults fail), you can change it (from the the statusbar or via menu - Encoding) and call file reopen (Ctrl+R) od Menu: File: Open special/recent: Reopen active file
(Any unsaved changes are discarded by reopening; however, editing a file with bad encoding settings is likely not intended.) Hth, vbr -- <https://forum.pspad.com/read.php?2,79718,79719> PSPad freeware editor https://www.pspad.com
