1.
JMeter .jmx scripts
<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/JMETER/JmxTestPlan> are
basically XML <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML> files
2.
|�| is null character <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_character>
3.
According to Valid characters in XML
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valid_characters_in_XML> article:
Note that the code point U+0000, assigned to the null control
character, is the only character encoded in Unicode and ISO/IEC
10646 that is *always invalid* in any XML 1.0 and 1.1 document.
So the solution would be opening the .jmx script in a text/hex editor of
your choice, look for all the occurrences of the null character and
delete them.
It might also be the case that the null character appeared because the
.jmx script was saved using one encoding
<https://www.baeldung.com/java-char-encoding> and you're trying to open
it in another encoding so you could try playing with the |file.encoding|
system property by trying to pass various possible encodings via -D
command-line argument
<https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/get-started.html#override> or
putting them to /system.properties/ file
