DELPHI : EEncodingError – Invalid code page on windows xp embedded – Stack Overflow

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/02/15

From my Windows XP days  (which are long gone), but historically relevant the answer to [Wayback] DELPHI : EEncodingError – Invalid code page on windows xp embedded – Stack Overflow by [Wayback] Remy Lebeau:

The TEncoding.ASCII property uses codepage 20127, which is not installed on XP Embedded by default. You have to install it manually. The TEncoding class does not exist in D2006.

Are you using Indy 10, by chance? It uses TEncoding.ASCII by default for its string encodings. This exact error has been known to occur when using Indy on XP Embedded.
