Hello, I often use Visual Studio Code. I installed it a few weeks ago and it shows me incomprehensible characters in the terminal of my programs. I checked that UTF-8 was enabled in the bottom right corner, but still nothing.

Thank you in advance

    Are your programs written in UTF-8?
    Do your programs read data with accented characters created in a code other than UTF-8?

      I admit I don't know at all. If I said no to everything, what should I do?

    Hello,

    This kind of behavior probably occurs due to the display of binary code and has disturbed your terminal.

    Just a side note, this is a problem that can happen on Linux. In that case, you would simply restart a new terminal.

    For Visual Studio Code, this discussion offers different approaches to reset your terminal.

    Good luck
