Answer 1

Close every project you have opened by clicking File > Close Project.

Once they are all closed, the startup window will show up (The window with the latest opened projects with the options to open new project, etc..) In that window, at the bottom right corner you have settings.

In Settings > Editor > File Encodings.You can set up all the File Encoding options to UTF-8, it will be added to the new projects from now on.

If you want it for old projects, do the same steps, but access the settings once you have the project open.

I hope this help!
