  1. Cannot login to Windows after changing default font


    I followed an instruction on the internet and I'd change the default font of Windows from Segoe UI to (Unicode) Google Sans that I'd also downloaded on the Internet. Then I restarted my laptop, but at the moment when I clicked to get to the login UI to enter my password, it didn't show that up to me and then return to the screen with the clock and date instead. Before doing that I'd created a recovery point but I cannot seems to get to the recovery screen.

    I'd also done something kind of like that 5 months ago and luckily the login UI showed up and I could be able to log in and change the font back to default.

    I also think that I'd misswritten the font name, Sán instead of Sans (cause of a Vietnamese program that helps me write Vietnamese) because the date and time's font seems not to be Google Sans.

    :)
