I have javascript files that I need them to be saved in UTF-8 (without BOM), every time I convert them to the correct format in Notepad++, they are reverted back to
UTF-8 - "Save As" (Without Signature) Default - Request to include Default for UTF Without Signature
VS 2017 natively supports EditorConfig so a recommended solution is to add
.editorconfigfile to your code base and setcharset => utf-8. Then once you save a file it will be saved as UTF-8 without BOM.
