    Windows 10 fonts corrupt by an Asian font


    Hi,


    an Asian font is being used for some of my system-wide font settings. This is mostly visible in some apps that probably initiate a standard Windows font, but Windows returs that Asian font instead. Three screenshot examples are attached: VLC, iCloud and iTunes.


    This is the way how many Asian (I am not sure if it is Japanese or Chinese, but I recognize it) fonts show Latin characters.


    I have tried to reinstall fonts, override font-related registers with a copy from another Windows 10 computer, but the issue persits.


    Please note that I have both Japanese and Chinese keyboard/fonts installed in my computer (yes, I have tried to remove and reinstall them...) and the issue probably started with installation of one of those packages.


    Examples:

    VLC - The whole settings dialog uses the corrupt font:

    iCloud - The buttons to open iCloud use the font:

    iTunes - All items are ok, but the ADD button is in this weird font:

    Thanks

  2. Why does Microsoft not want Windows users to be able to hide Asian Fonts?

    While it is possible to grey out Asian fonts in the Windows 10 font list accessed through the Control Panel, Asian fonts so greyed out still show up as active fonts in at least one word processor, LibreOffice. Why is this such a big deal for Microsoft?
    It's not that people are trying to delete the Asian fonts, just hide them for the time being because they are irrelevant to most Western users. Does anyone have any ideas as to just why
    Microsoft insists on these fonts not being hidden?

    Asian fonts betwee ppc and Vista

    My T-mobile MDA is running Windows Mobile 5.1.195. For my Asian font on it, I've always used MS Song. While my laptop was running XP that was no problem since MS Song was part of its Asian language pack. However, I recently moved to a new laptop running
    Vista. MS Song is not among Vista's Asian fonts! New files created on the laptop (but saved in 03 Word format, of course) only display squares for Asian characters when the files are copied to the ppc and opened there. However, on the ppc, if I then reformat
    the file in MS Song they display. Oddly, if I copy that file back to the laptop, overwriting the version there, and open it in Vista, the characters display, formatted as MS Song, althoughthe font appears nowhere on the laptop! This is my present workaround,
    but it's awkward to say the least. Any suggestions?
