Server.URLDecode will also perform the vice versa of Server.URLEncode. Server.URLEncode

is compatible with classic ASP that is why used in Classic ASP. Server.UrlEncode & Server.UrlDecode provides us backward compatible.

Conclusion:

If we use Server.URLEncode in classic ASP applications provide us backward compatible and HttpUtility.UrlEncode in new modern ASP.net web application, these Server utilities helps to Server cannot misinterpret our important data and can be represent our data real time as per our best requirements so server can understand our brilliant queries.
