    crazy font in windows 10


    I recently upgraded to windows 10 from windows 7. Today morning, when I started my PC, I faced weird wingdings fonts everywhere.

    I ran rebuild font cache bat file from here

    Font Cache - Rebuild in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums

    Then my windows 10 showed very few fonts in the system after I restarted, then I installed fonts from my external storage hard drive. Then the problem was almost solved. Howerver, now I am getting weird font in firefox browser.

    Here is the screenshot.

    This font also comes in "next" and "cancel" buttons of software installers. What should I do to fix this problem?

    Have you tried the "Restore default font settings" button in Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Fonts\Font settings?

    Thanks. I just did that. However, problem isn't solved. Firefox is still showing the messed up fonts.

    You might need to go into FF's Options menu and set it up so:

    I just started my pc again. Unfortunately my fonts went missing and I had to reinstall them. This trouble has returned again. The methods listed are not working anymore. What should I do?
