  1. Seemingly irreversible system font change after using Winaero Tweaker?


    Wanted to change my system font, so I used Winaero Tweaker to do so after seeing positive things said about it. I did successfully change my system font, but there was also a strange side-effect.
    In the windows search bar, among some other places, the font remained as the system default (which I don't have a problem with in itself), but in any context where Bold text would be applied, the text is now not only Bold but wider, which is both ugly and less legible.
    like so
    Compare to what it looks like by default

    Obviously I tried simply setting my system font back to the default using Winaero, but not only did this Boldness problem persist, but the default font was busted now too, despite using the dedicated 'reset to defaults' feature.
    Any idea what I can do or if there's a better place to ask? Ideally I'd love to keep my preferred font as system font, but at the very least I'd like to know how to manually revert to the default settings.

    Winaero Tweaker is supposed to allow a user to adjust things like the font used for desktop icon labels. But the download is a ZIP file. How do you extract the executable software from the ZIP file?

    I recently asked about how to get icon titles into readable sizes and fonts. An answer came back, with a link to "Winaero Tweaker". But the he site is enormously confusing, and the software itself is a ZIP file. How do I get a download package that provides
    an installable piece of software?
