Well I did the Microsoft EU Font update from, the microsoft website and now all my fonts are back to normal!?! Who knows what happened but it's fixed!

Yeah it's really strange because it looks the same (sorry for the awful quality image I don't see how that happened!) but the bold parts are extra bold... It's so strange! I can only tell as the text doesn't fit on most buttons on websites anymore! It's especially apparent on youtube. Have a look because the fonts on the video names have definitely got insanely bold!

I have no idea what has happened but suddenly all of my chrome fonts have gone really strange? I tried reinstalling but nothing fixed it? Any ideas? [ATTACH=CONFIG]1299.vB5-legacyid=2310[/ATTACH]

Thanks Ray yeah because my brother has the same setup as me and it works fine for him! I'm just gunna attempt to forget about it now and hopefully it will sort itself out because I just can't be doing with it!

Don't worry Ken I am too! I'm just going to live with it and hope that in the future I stumble across a fix or it is automatically sorted in the form of an update! To be honest it isn't worth restoring my computer for so I'm just going to wait and see and if it isn't sorted in a few months maybe I'll consider resetting and reinstalling windows but right now its just not worth it! Thank you all so much for your help and support I can't thank you enough!

Sorry to spam my own question but I can also change my default programs to programs that uninstall a program doesnt pick up! Suggesting windows sees the programs fine but not their uninstallers!?

Thought this may be interesting [ATTACH=CONFIG]1292.vB5-legacyid=2302[/ATTACH] That's what has been installed since the problem started... Do you thing it could have something to do with the Microsoft redistributable files?

[ATTACH=CONFIG]1290.vB5-legacyid=2300[/ATTACH] Ccleaner uninstaller picks up most of my programs but not quite all! Still more than windows is seeing

[ATTACH=CONFIG]1289.vB5-legacyid=2299[/ATTACH] Programs still uninstall perfectly fine aswell!

Well I tried restarting with my external hard drive turned on but nothing changed! Control panel is just the same! I have even tried running some benchmarks and my computer is performing just as it always has! Do you think I should leave it and just keep looking for a solution because I feel bad to be wasting your time when nothing seems to fix it! I just don't know what else there is to try unless there is a way to refresh the programs list

Sorry thats such poor quality I dont know why!

[ATTACH=CONFIG]1288.vB5-legacyid=2298[/ATTACH] That's an image showing that they both pick up exactly the same thing... It's such a strange problem I've never known anything quite like it

You are basically correct however the place I installed all those other programs was actually an internal hard drive within my computer which I use to store data on as my SSD is very small! The external hard drive I only use for backing things up to and that is where my system image backup is stored... I am certain that before programs from both my SSD and internal hard drive were visible but I don't actually have any programs installed on my hard drive! However last windows update my external hard drive was pluged in and turned on so whether it has some requiered files on it I am unsure? First I will run revo Uninstaller and then Im going to try rebooting with my external hard drive turned on to see if that makes any difference at all!

Well I tried windows support to see if they would do anything but they wanted to charge me $99 just to access my pc and even if that would fix it I don't have 60 quid to throw at it! I just worry it's a bigger problem than a few bits are missing but there is no evidence that it is a bigger problem at all!
