Some programs, particularly MS Excel, might not open/save the CSV properly when opened normally/directly. Follow below steps if you face issues.

Opening the CSV

1. For MS Excel: Open a new excel file > Click Data > Get External Data > From text > Select the CSV file > Set file origin to UTF-8 in the wizard.
2. For other programs, follow similar methods to set the file encoding to UTF-8 before opening the CSV.

Saving the CSV after editing

1. For MS Excel: File > Save as > Change file format in the dropdown to "CSV UTF-8 (Comma delimited) (.csv)" > Save
2. For other programs, follow similar methods to set the file encoding to UTF-8 before saving the edited CSV.
