Windows 10 terminal encoding
Solution 1:
How can I find out the encoding of my windows 10 terminal?
If by terminal you mean a cmd
shell, you can use the chcp
command to display and change the code page used.
Examples
View the current code page:
chcp
Change the code page to Unicode/65001:
chcp 65001
Source chcp
Here is a full list of Code Page Identifiers. See also Code Pages.

Solution 2:
When you are in cmd
window, make a right click on the black icon located in the top left corner then make left click on "property in menu", in the appeared windows, click on "Font" tab and try different fonts (preferably TTF, such as Lucida Console) that support your unicode characters
