Windows 10: Start menu font has changed

Can anyone tell me why the search bar font has changed? I don't know the font name but much wider then before almost fills the space. Also, when I click in the search bar it reverts back to the original font. Can anyone help me to change it back please?

Help with start menu font please

WE do have many customization experts here but I am definitely not one of them. However, since your request stirred my interest, I did some minimal research and found this old thread:

Start Menu font size

Now, things may have changed since then, but if they didn't, you may be interested in trying out Classic Shell and using this tutorial to change the start menu fonts to your preference:

Again, I am no expert in this area but since I prefer Classic Shell Start Menu anyway, I thought I would make that suggestion. Here is a view of my CS Start Menu for your edification (without any modified fonts):





Hope someone can help you with your original request.
