File was loaded in the wrong encoding:'UTF-8' in IntelliJ IDEA

Question

Before asking the question, I searched for a similar question on StackOverflow:

file was loaded in the wrong encoding: 'UTF-8' in android studio

But it did not give an explicit answer there.

My issue is that the project is downloaded from the network, and it is an eclipse project, I open it with IntelliJ IDEA, and get this issue:

Answer 1

正如 Tarik 所指出的，点击Reload in another encoding ，如果你想要UTF-8编码，然后点击more -> UTF-8 。

Answer 2

in my case , when i uploaded the first .ttf file in assert folder , android studio asked me to choose one file type , and when I selected text type . this problem start to appear . the right file type is : 'Files Opened In Associated Applications'. to fix your problem , you have to open preferences ->Editor ->File Types and search for .ttf extension then remove it and add it again under 'Files Opened In Associated Applications'

Answer 3

You can try opening your file with an other text editor, like Notepad++. Sometimes it can detect the correct encoding of your file, using a different pattern than IntelliJ. Then you will be able to use the "Reload..." of IntelliJ.

Answer 9

Though the encoding setting was present in the pom.xml, IntelliJ was trying to load all test files using UTF-8 instead of ISO-8859-1, so I found this in the IntelliJ docs: Encoding in IntelliJ Which, it basically was...

1. Open preferences (in macOS hit, command + , )
2. Go to Editor / File Encodings
3. Select the project correct encoding if it defers from your pom.xml - project.build.sourceEncoding

By doing so, it did stop asking me to reload the file with the correct encoding.

If you have previously loaded this file without problems, and this is a new issue for you, try invalidating the caches in your IDE.

An easy way to open this option is by opening the super-search functionality (hit shift twice) and search for 'cache' in the 'actions' tab.

When prompted, choose the following option:
