Using PowerShell to write a file in UTF-8 without the BOM

Question

Out-File seems to force the BOM when using UTF-8:

$MyFile = Get-Content $MyPath
$MyFile | Out-File -Encoding \"UTF8\" $MyPath

Answer 1

This one works for me (use "Default" instead of "UTF8"):

$MyFile = Get-Content $MyPath
$MyFile | Out-File -Encoding "Default" $MyPath

The result is ASCII without BOM.
