My Chinese Word Suddenly Appear As Square Box

  • 0

Hi,

I forget what i have done for the past week to cause this problem. I tried system restore but none of the restore point successfully restored.

My computer suddenly cannot read Chinese character, but not all program. So far i only know notepad and itunes doesn’t read it.

And, itunes only the cover page of the album/artists doesn’t read it. It mean when i double click, i can read all the song in Chinese.

It’s turn out to be square boxes. I can copy the Square boxes from notepad to MS word and the word will appear correctly.

My guess is some font from my system is gone or crash.

What i had tried;
1) Control Panel>Region and Language>Administrative> Change System Locale to Chinese (Simplified, PRC).
2) Reinstall Itunes.
3) still trying….

Any idea will greatly appreciate.

PS : I am using Windows 7 Pro

      To add an input language

      1.

      Open Region and Language by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking Clock, Language, and Region, and then clicking Region and Language.
      2.

      Click the Keyboards and Languages tab, and then click Change keyboards.
      3.

      Under Installed services, click Add.
      4.

      Double-click the language you want to add, double-click Keyboard, select the text services options you want to add, and then click OK.

      ——————————

      Not sure if that helps or not, but I thought it had to be with “Region and Language” settings
