    Default Dialog Box problem

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Has anyone seen an issue with the dialog box having small boxes in them not regular text. I have already tried to reset the fonts setting in options.

    It is too small to read.
    Is that a tooltip?

    Have you shut down and restarted your computer?

    Did it just start today?
    Anything else change right before this started?
    Installed or UNinstalled something?
    Windows update?
    A/V updates?

    Have you tried restoring Windows to a restore point saved just before this happened?
