I saw this answer, The problem is - so I also need to know what type of encoder to use for getting the correct string - it may be in UTF\UTF8\ANSI.

Here is a example from the immediate window.

Encoding.Unicode.GetString(combinedBuf)
"믯ힿ힩힜힕�"
Encoding.UTF8.GetString(combinedBuf)
"שלום"

    I don't know that this makes sense. What you want is like asking a compiler to compile text and figure out whether it's in C, Java, or FORTRAN. Commented Apr 15, 2013 at 13:41

    I think what you want to do is detect which encoding was used? See the accepted answer here stackoverflow.com/questions/3404199/… Commented Apr 15, 2013 at 13:49
