FileRead and FileReadLines returning nothing when reading non-empty file

[Niceygy]

I am trying to read a text file, and when using FileOpen it returns nothing.

Code is as follows:

Func LoadConfFile()
    Local $confFile = $confFolder & "/test.txt"
    $FileOpened = FileRead($confFile)
    If @error Then
        MsgBox(0, "ERROR!", @error)
    else
        MsgBox(0, "file:", $FileOpened)
    endif
EndFunc

What am I doing wrong here?

Convert the content of the file with StringToBinary, so you can see if there is an unwanted character...

You can also check @extended (see help file)

Or your file is unicode ?

Open the file as binary and see what's there or inspect it with a hex editor.
