“the character encoding was not declared proceeding using windows 1252′ – What can I do?

I get the ‘the character encoding was not declared proceeding using windows 1252′ error when I try to validate any simple HTML document without a meta encoding:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
</head>
<body>Test</body>
</html>

When the document is pasted into the direct input form, the W3C validator reluctantly accepts it as legitimate with just a few warnings. However, when the document is uploaded or loaded by URI, validation fails and displays this error notice.

Error: The character encoding was not declared. Proceeding using windows-1252.

I don’t know why the error happens and how to fix it. Can you give me some solution?

    The cause: There is no helpful “fallback.” The W3C cannot select which encoding you should employ.

    Solution: You must make your own declarations depending on the characters you need to provide on your web page(s), and then submit your document for validation by the W3C using those declarations.
