Corrupt Log Files A Small tip for DISM Users

[splinterededge]

Hello World,

 

Just a tip for those whom might have ran into this.  If you have ever had a corrupt DISM log.

The Answer

Change your log files text encoding to UTF-8

Example of a corrupt log from an improper encoding.  Powershell will by default create files in UCS-2 Little Endian Encoding so this may happen to you.
