Fonts in the UI mangled

[RickBiessman]

Hi everybody,

I wanted to report a bug I encountered while trying out Windows 11 (have since rolled back to Windows 10 for various reasons). When working in Publisher, out of nowhere some written elements in the program’s UI were mangled, rendering the program unsuable. This happened multiple times but I wasn’t able to pinpoint a common factor. I’ve attached a screenshot that shows the problem. Notice that not all parts of the UI are affected. The document itself remained fully intact.

Hi Rick,

Please could you take a look through the following list and tell me if you have any of the listed apps installed ( specifically ASUS Sonic / ASUS GPU Tweak III / MSI Nahimic)

Thanks

Hi Callum,

thanks for the response. I don’t have any of the software installed that you mentioned. All I can say is that on Windows 11, this seemed to happen at random, but probably every two to three hours. After having rolled back to Windows 10 (with all else being the same as far as I can tell), I haven’t run into this issue anymore.

Also I forgot to mention that restarting the program fixed the issue temporarily.
