About File Encoding Checker

A GUI tool that allows validating the text encoding of one or more files.

License: MPL-2.0
Release info Update on Oct 01, 2026
Release notes One reporting fix: a preview no longer calls files Converted. What EC detects, converts and refuses is unchanged.

What changed
o A preview says WouldConvert. -WhatIf, -Plan, and the GUI's preview followed by a CSV export wrote Converted for files a real run would convert, although nothing was written; the -Verbose breakdown counted them the same way. They are now WouldConvert in the CSV (on stdout, with -Report, or exported from the GUI) and in the -Verbose breakdown. Converted appears only for a file EC wrote; a file the run never reached still reads NotAttempted.

Full details: RELEASE-NOTES-v3.15.1.md.

Compatibility

The CSV Result column has a new value. A script that counted Converted rows in a preview or -Plan run must now match WouldConvert; a script that checks for a fixed set of Result values will meet a new one. Rows from a real run are unchanged.

Conversion semantics stay at 8, the plan schema at 6, the journal schema at 6. Plans written by v3.15.0 still apply.

Safety record

Audit record -> . Release notes -> . Defect ledger ->

No four-corpus audit was run. This release changes neither detection nor ConversionPolicy; it changes only how a preview is reported. The shared detector files are unchanged.

The published executables reproduce byte-for-byte from their tag. A fresh clone of v3.15.1, published locally with .NET SDK 10.0.401 (runtime 10.0.12, matching the release runner), produced:
o Framework-dependent: dc33e9759ea80ab71d8aa5c47eed881d0d9ad73eb90fb5147cd37cf5bb945202 (also the executable the release run's GUI smoke suite drove, all ten phases passed)
o Self-contained: 0d5bdfa2cde63d6265d4033cb0a26188fdefd647e10186162e6260e3c075a3a4

Both published executables report 3.15.1 from --version. The release archives were downloaded and hashed locally, and match GitHub's reported digests:
