Hi, Recently I went on my computer to play some games look stuff up on the web and notice my computer has changed font some how. I've factory restarted twice it worked for a day then it would be the same. When i say it changed it font i mean everything on desktop and start menu anything windows goes from ENGLISH to like x(;'a[]w-=+ and other symbols. I've tried looking online and haven't got a solution. If you could help me let me know! Also here's a picture.

I don't know how to link you to the original thread but this was posted by MrShowdown on 5th Feb 2013 ...

It was the answer to fixing a font problem that caused symbols like yours to appear.
Might not be the same thing but worth a try anyway.

"Download the attachment i posted, extract it, right click on the file, then click install.
Click yes if asked to replace font."
