7998: ANSI targets are deprecated

Question

How can I resolve "7998: ANSI targets are deprecated"?

When I add Unicode True

I get error,

Error: Can't change target charset after data already got compressed or header already changed!
Error in script -- on line 58
-- aborting creation process

Please post a Minimal, Reproducible Example that illustrates your problem – Resignation

Add "Unicode True" where? What is the context? – Blatt

If you think about it, once you starting writing, to change from pencil to pen and back is destructive. Saying "change to pencil" should be done before writing begins at all. Same thing that message is saying. – Negligence

Unicode True needs to be set very early in your .NSI file, before any !include statements and before any File commands.

It can be after !include statements. NSIS Documentation: It can only be used outside of sections and functions and before any data is compressed. – Thundercloud

@Thundercloud It depends on the header, it is better to just put it first in the script. – Dermott
