Wrong move.  You should use "C-x RET c" before "C-x C-f" instead.
That's because the file is already decoded by the time it is
displayed, and so no tinkering with options>mule>set-coding-system
will make any difference as to how it is displayed.

(The reason the options>mule>set-coding-system option is disabled is
probably because Emacs decided the file was in raw-text.)
