Export to Excel - UTF-8
Why doesn't power bi export it in ANSI?? this way wouldn't be any problem, would it? I think changing it in power bi would resolve it, so lets say them , I have a ticket with this case but as more tickets more possibilities to be solved.... thanks
Because it will break for characters which can't be represented in ANSI <for example: Chinese, Korean etc>

If the problem is recognized by the PowerBI team, a solution can be found and delivered.
And the problem exists - the current export is clumsy for those unlucky to have data in encoding different from Win-1252.

Which probably would benefit a larger audience, since lots of people complain about that:
just my $0.02 :)
