What it does and does not do

The repair undoes the damage caused by reading UTF-8 text as some other encoding, turning "Ã§Ä±kÄ±ÅŸ" back into "çıkış". It is common in old database dumps, CSV exports and email. Nothing is guessed: text that is not valid is left alone.

It will not turn plain "cikis" into "çıkış". That direction needs a dictionary, and without one every attempt is a guess that makes wrong text look right. This tool only does the part that can be solved exactly. Your text never leaves the browser.
