I'm using pgAdmin IV (version 5.7) now because of my job, previously I only had used pgAdmin III. My problem is that I have already set the charset correctly with

set client_encoding = 'Win1252';

and when I execute a select, this error still appears. I'm connected to the same database with both, and the database I'm linking to is Postgres 9.5. When I do the same with pgAdmin III, I get all the data correctly.

When I run show server_encoding on the database I receive **WIN1252*:

Error:

'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x8d in position 8773: character maps to <undefined>
