Decoding the given string to know the original string and number of characters

Question

I have the following base 64 string:

/d4OjQAGAgJvToLbkeZ1rQ==

when I try to decode this it gives some non readable characters ýÞoN‚Û‘æu

How can I decode such that the decoded value makes some sense? I want to know the number of characters involved in creating the above base64. I actually want to know the string that created this encoding.

I used javascript's atob function to decode.

There is not enough information. It seems like you are guessing it is Base64 and guessing it should decode into a readable string. If not, then you have not provided all information. — trincot, Mar 28 '21 at 12:32

May be this base64 string /d4OjQAGAgJvToLbkeZ1rQ== is not meaningful. It can't be decoded to regular characters.
