    Windows 7 Font Problem


    Hi All!
    I recently switched from a Surface Pro 3 to Samsung 13.3” Series 5 Ultrabook (NP530U3C-A03AU). I realized that some programs have different fonts on the Ultrabook. Some programs don't show the font they are meant to but a type of Gothic Font instead.

    E.g.
    Like the Windows 10 Upgrade Tool:
    It shows this

    Instead of this

    If anyone has a solution, it would be greatly appreciated if you would share it!
    Thanks,

    Hi and welcome to SevenForums,
    That is weird New times roman font should be Segoe UI :/
    Have you tried to restore the default fonts ?

    Hi,
    Interesting I guess you'll have to do it manually not sure why new times roman would be system default
    Looks like a Italic is also being used :/
    Something is messed up have you ran sfc ?
    SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

    Run it three times and restart between each run :/

    I just tried it. It said that nothing was wrong. I think I will just leave it. I won't bother me that much.

    Thanks ThrashZone!

    Hi,
    Well if you change your mind it's not very difficult to change to Segoe UI or something else
