Hello Lex,
Thank you for your patience...

No problem, thanks for yours, I'm sorry for the time this is taking,
but since this does not misbehave here I have to get you to try
everything :)



[snip]
Default encoding for new files is: UTF-8
Default encoding for non-unicode files is: None
(The checkbox between these two options is set)

All ok, has no effect on loading since it is none.


As far as I can remember, I previously set the default encoding for new
files to UTF-8, but I am not sure about the other setting...

2. what is your machine locale

Both the above affect the order it tries encodings, then its in an
implementation defined order

I don't know exactly. It is a Win 7 Professional German version, so I
suppose the locale is CP1252

Have a look at the end of the Geany version line in the help->debug
messages (line one or two usually) it should have a language.encoding

10:14:48: Geany INFO            : Geany 0.21, German_Switzerland.1252


[snip]
13:25:41: Geany INFO            : Trying to convert 191588 bytes of data
from CP1252 into UTF-8.
13:25:41: Geany INFO            : Converted from CP1252 to UTF-8.
13:25:41: Geany INFO            : J:\QUARTIS\_dev\locale\QrtRes_de.rc : Conf
(CP1252)


If this is the only "trying..." message then I would expect it gets
the cp1252 from the locale, the question is why is there a difference
between the menu encoding and the status line, both should be set from
the same memory location.

You might also look at file->properties and see which it agrees with.

Encoding: CP1252

Best regards
