Windows 10: Windows 10 - Wrong fonts on websites

Hi, I am a graphic designer, so I have to use helvetica, however, with windows 10 there is an issue. Some sites that use helvetica end up picking a weird version of it. One of them being paypal, uses this awful Helvetica thin compressed.

There are other sites too. Some use a Helvetica heavy oblique. The weird thing is the website itself doesn't use that specific Helvetica font.

Anyways, it's a minor issue, but... I coudn't remove / delete these fonts these fonts. I tried to delete them and hide them but to no avail.

Strange graphic bugs on windows 10

Okay I've got the answer. For some reason all of my system fonts were deleted. Here's what to do:

1. Download the windows 10 system fonts from a website

2. Open your C drive, Windows, Fonts

3. Copy the fonts you downloaded into the fonts folder

 

Hi, I have the exact same problem, it renders a number of websites almost unreadable. I tried to delete/deinstall Helevetica Light, but Win10 won't allow me. Some suggest you turn of DirecteWrite in Google, but it didn't solve it for me.

 

I eventually figured it out. I had to change the permissions on the font, and also enabled a hidden administrator account. Also, I had to type in C:\Windows\Fonts in the cortana instead of control panel.

I recommend downloading a font called swiss 721. It pretty much looks exactly like helvetica
