Linux differs from Windows system language encoding

Under the Linux operating system, we sometimes open the TXT file under Windows, and found that the TXT file that can be displayed normally in Windows is garbled in Chinese.
This occurs because of the difference between the Chinese characters encoding (compression) of two operating systems, where the character encoding is generally GBK in the Windows environment, and UTF8 in the Linux environment, This led to the normal display of TXT files under Windows in Linux environment open rendered garbled state.

System Encoding Settings
