Check Encoding class and conversions for specific code pages. Also, you need
to check CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.

Do you have some examples

For console
String.Format (IFormatProvider, String, Object[])


For file
StreamWriter (Stream, Encoding) Initializes a new instance of
the StreamWriter class for the specified stream, using the specified
encoding and the default buffer size.
Try Encoding.Convert (Encoding, Encoding, Byte[]) Converts an entire
byte array from one encoding to another.
Exact approach depends on your thread culture, windows culture and
file culture. You might have all three different.

Can you post your code demonstrating issue?

Replaces the format item in a specified String with the text
equivalent of the value of a corresponding Object instance in a specified
array. A specified parameter supplies culture-specific formatting
information.
