Answer 2

Open Start, type: fonts

Hit Enter

Click font settings

Click Restore default font settings

Click OK

Restart.

If that does not work....

The fonts folder might get affected when the virus scan and Windows update are running together.

Let us follow these methods and check if this helps.

Method 1.

Restart the computer and get to the log on screen.

On the log-on screen hold “Windows key + Spacebar”.

Now change the “input language” and check if it helps.

Method 2.

Boot the computer in safe mode and check if this helps.

If you're not signed in to Windows, tap or click the power icon from the sign-in screen, hold the Shift key, and then tap or click Restart.

Windows Startup Settings (including safe mode):

Once you are able to get to safe mode, try to get to the desktop screen and check the status. You may perform system restore to a previous date when the computer was working fine.

Refer to the section “To restore your PC to an earlier point in time” from this article.

Important: System Restore will not revert any of the non-system files like documents, email, music, etc. to a previous state. These types files are completely unaffected by System Restore. If your intention with this tool was to recover a deleted non-system file, try using a file recovery program instead of System Restore.
