VS Code terminal doesn't print correctly all characters in my java code

public class App {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        System.out.print("名 é à è €");

}

But whenever I run and debug in VS Code my project, the output in the terminal is this:

Answer 1

this issue could be the cause of the coding error. By default, vscode uses UTF-8 encoding, and the computer uses GBK. I tried changing the computer settings to work fine:

1. Go to the computer settings, select Time&Language, select Language&region, Administrative language settings, Change system locale, and tick the Beta version.
2. Restart vscode to try to run the code.
