version 1709 16299248 kb4074588 just downloaded today
firefox and chrome both showing washed out fonts
shutdown no help, restart no help, latest version on both browsers
would reinstalling them do anything
Referring to the fonts in the taskbar ? Will the browsers open ?
Are they listed in Programs on the Control Panel ?
If they open, I would recommend saving your favorites to file and uninstall/reinstall.
referring to fonts on web pages that I open in firefox or chrome, they have never been washed out, always dark and clear, update did something I am guessing
Check your display driver, though if it needed update other issues would likely be noticed.
Just for giggles, may want to reinstall the display driver to see if any change.
