Windows is showing random nonsense HELP!!!
I recently encountered an issue with my new Dell system that had been recently restarted. After logging in, I was met with a lot of confusing text—every app name looked like random symbols and many parts of the system seemed distorted. I ran the sfc tool multiple times, but it still reported violations that couldn’t be resolved or indicated no issues. I also tried DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth, which said it needed an image or completed without errors. I’m unsure what steps to take next. I’d rather not reinstall Windows since it’s frustrating, and I can’t back up my PC because I don’t know what to do. The Windows search bar also stopped working, only opening and closing abruptly. I removed the GPU thinking it was causing problems, but that didn’t fix anything. My Minecraft server link is child-anymore.at.ply.gg—please don’t be rude, and let’s avoid any issues that could shut it down permanently.
You'll have to kind of drive blind, but there's a "Restore default font settings" button in the old Fonts control panel. Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Fonts\Font settings
The search bar may not function properly even if it appears open, causing it to close unexpectedly. Try restarting the app or clearing your cache to resolve the issue.
