Cyrillic encoding Analytical Workbench

Hi, I am currently setting up the Altair Analytics Workbench (Community edition) and trying to work with Cyrillic text. Specifically, I’m attempting to hardcode Cyrillic characters into my script, but the resulting output shows unrecognized symbols in the dataset.

I checked the encoding settings and confirmed that Cp1251 is set, which theoretically should support Cyrillic characters. I have also tested other encoding options, including UTF-8 and Cp1252, but the output still displays unrecognized symbols. Additionally, I noted that the local server’s system encoding is set to WATIN1, which is locked and cannot be modified.

Could anyone suggest the root cause of this issue or recommend a solution?
