I changed my password, now all my characters on desktop, word etc are all wingding? how to change to normal

Publisher not printing Wingding

Publisher will not print wingding characters even though it has before. Also, text boxes in Publisher are showing up completely black (never did before.) I had an update to my computer, then the problems started. I uninstalled the updates thinking this
would solve my problem, but it didn't work.

Wingding Regular, 2 & 3 are all in my font list.

The characters print just fine in PDF form, as do the text boxes.

Can someone help me?

 

Trouble Changing Wi-Fi Password


I've been following the following steps to change my Wi-Fi password for some time:

1. Launch Control Panel.
2. Click "Network and Internet."
3. Click "Network and Sharing Center."
4. Click "Wi-Fi...."
5. Click "Wireless Properties."
6. Click the Security tab.
7. Check "Show characters."
8. Enter the password in "Network security key."

Those steps have been working just fine, but today I discovered a new wrinkle. If I change the password inside the router first, "Wi-Fi..." doesn't appear in step 4. This isn't much of a problem at home, because I can just change the password in Control Panel before I change it inside the router, but it would be a problem at a public hotspot, or something of that nature. I also tested Brink's instructions in "How to Connect To a Wireless Network in Windows 10," but they don't work for me either. How can I fix this?

 

Help, Windows 10 system fonts changed to Wingdings

Last night I copied a single font from my Mac to my Windows 10 desktop. I copied the file, right-clicked on it and chose Install. It seemed to work fine, I used the font for a few hours in Photoshop then shutdown and went to bed.

When I booted up this morning all of my fonts were Wingdings or something similar, and my system is basically unusable. I searched the issue and found a bunch of old threads with suggestions. The command prompt is readable and there's hundreds of fonts in
the C:\Windows\Fonts directory. However, Control Panel\Fonts only shows 3 fonts.

I exported HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\Fonts from a working Windows 10 machine and launched the .reg file on my wingdings machine, but it didn't fix the issue.

So then I copied all the files from c:\windows\fonts on my working Windows 10 machine over to the wingdings machine. It created a ton of duplicates in the fonts directory, but it worked. The system fonts slowly started changing back to the correct ones.
Boot once I reboot they all go back to wingdings, and Control Panel\Fonts goes back to only showing 3 fonts again. So I can continue copying c:\windows\fonts from a good machine to the wingdings machine which seems to reinstall all the fonts but it also keeps
creating more and more duplicates and the \fonts directory keeps growing, but it still goes back to wingdings after every reboot.

Does anyone have any suggestions for how to reinstall all of my fonts in a way that will persist after reboots? Short of performing a device reset, I'm saving that for the last resort.

Thanks
