Windows-1252
Windows-1252 is the first default character set in Microsoft Windows.
From 1985 to 1990, it was the most popular character set in Windows.
ANSI
Historically, the term "ANSI Code Pages" was used in Windows to refer to non-DOS character sets.
The purpose is to make these character sets ANSI standards, such as ISO-8859-1.
Although Windows-1252 is almost the same as ISO-8859-1, it has never become an ANSI or ISO standard.
Windows-1252 and ASCII
The first part of Windows-1252 (entity numbers from 0-127) is the original ASCII character set. It includes numbers, uppercase and lowercase English letters, and some special characters.
