Cannot see None English characters (ANSI Encoded) in .Net controls when loading form files

Do you have problems with showing non English characters in .net controls ? If you have seen non English characters are shown as "?" in .Net controls when you load contents from files.

Two Scenarios

 1. User Owns Data - where users will be directly registered in PowerBi portal

                case CtrlTypes.CTRL_C_EVENT:
                case CtrlTypes.CTRL_BREAK_EVENT:
                case CtrlTypes.CTRL_CLOSE_EVENT:
                case CtrlTypes.CTRL_LOGOFF_EVENT:
