Coldfusion file content no longer readable when we open the file in an editor

My ColdFusion 11 app is working fine on my local machine (Windows 10). But when I open any .cfm file in Eclipse or even in a Notepad, I get the content - such as the following - that is not readable. It was not happening before. How can I make the files readable again?

It appears that what you are opening are binary versions of the CFM files. Someone or some process has converted the CFM files, for example, using cfencode or cfcompile.
