Detect text encoding file

Please help me decode this? Toufic , 28 march at I am receiving 2 hex codes from a website and I want to compare their values, but I don't know what they are encoded in. They look like hex. Code 1: dba86dc2b0bddc4abc5b54e93eefc3ceefc Code 2: b4adbbdb8d9fc1c3e9faffcd3b10e51cd7d15c Help please?

Avery , 5 april at How would I go about decoding this: "bacba18"? On hash identification websites it says it's probably Base64, but I can't get any result :o. Juan , 15 july at Hi, I've got this b2dd5dbf7d5e8ebdda5f9fddbcaed0d and I don't know how it's encoded. Would you please help me? Thanks in advance and regards. Rise , 13 september at Trying to convert this to text: cbc8dec0bd7a7ea70fd0f1f4f74bb86f5af5fc5cece0e53cc1ec7afc8ba3b3aad54bff1cdc6f3e53af I think it's hexidemical but not sure how to work with and not sure the charactacter encoding.

Thanks for any help. Hi did you find the information about your string to text which was in hexadecimal? Please help me i got same. Michael , 26 september at I would really like to know. Is it possible to be deobfuscated? Someone sent phishing link to me. I want to report it but both URL and source are obfuscated. I would really need to deobfuscate it.

You can try some online deobfuscators, but I think that your code can only be deobfuscated manually by a JavaScript developer who has enough skills, time and motivation. By the way, since "Someone sent you a phishing link", just report him and that link or message.

This is more than sufficient. I found the obfuscation method even though I am unable to deobfuscate it. It resulted this using deobfuscate.

Ben , 28 october at For example, knowing the charset of a subtitle file is required by many multimedia players to correctly display your subtitle in a readable format.

Feel Free to check our Charset Converter Tool. Steps to Reproduce. Clarifying Information Consider an OpenEdge, Webspeed, Rollbase that allows a user to to upload a file with text content.

The application expects the files to be encoded in a specific character set or code page. However, some users may upload files with a different character encoding than the one expected by the program. Error Message. Defect Number. Enhancement Number. Resolution Detecting the non-binary file encoding is not trivial, and is not restricted to the scope Progress-powered applications. This article covers non-binary files. Some files, such as XML files, generally indicate their encoding with a file header.

In fact the header can indicate an encoding while in reality the file is encoded with another character set. Several answers are here but nobody has posted usefull code. Open, FileAccess. Read, FileShare. If the stream is shorter, less bytes will be read. Elmue Elmue 6, 44 44 silver badges 55 55 bronze badges. How can I use this function if I only have a file name? MichaelHutter use File. Open sFilename to get the file stream. Then proceed — Alex from Jitbit. If the BOM is missing it may make a mistake by assuming a wrong Encoding.

This answer is doing the same "mistake". It only works if there is a BOM. In case if there is no BOM inside the file, it is necessary to analyse the whole file content like it is done here: stackoverflow.

This answer answers the question that was asked by Cedrik. There is no mistake in the answer. Your mistake is that you did not read the question.

Codo Codo That's just pure ascii. Nyerguds maybe not. I have an UTF-8 text file without "specific detectable bit patterns" - and mostly all English characters.

If the character is not ascii, then it will be encoded using those specific detectable bit patterns; that's how utf-8 works. More likely, your text is neither ascii nor utf-8, but just an 8-bit encoding like Windows Michael Hutter Michael Hutter 6 6 silver badges 25 25 bronze badges.
