  • 0

Is there a way of searching for unicode characters inside a text file under Windows XP? For example suppose I wish to find text documents with the euro symbol. Although the standard XP search allows me to search for the euro symbol it does not produce any matches when I know they should be at least a few. Wingrep has the same issue. Is there any simple software/setting the I have missed?

    The input encoding of the search field (in Windows XP, UTF-16) may not match the encoding of the text file (probably UTF-8).

    I haven’t used this tool (freeware), but it might work for your needs.
