Contaminated Page Title?
I've noticed since installing Win 10 that the Titles of most windows are weird. It started with a line through the letters and now they appear blacked out. I'm thinking it's some setting I've buggered up?
The attached pic shows what they used to look like, they are now blacked out. |

Howdy keith.evans,
Can't see the change to all black being some Windows setting. Did you uninstall Classic Explorer, reboot and check? |

After a search I can't find anything named 'Classic Explorer' anywhere. Is there something else I should be looking for?

Shoot, sorry, Classic Shell. It makes changes that might show up like you have.

I really thought you'd hit the nail on the head @Jintan!! I got back to uninstall Classic Shell, which I'd installed around Win 7 time and kept right up until now, or so I'd thought. After some head scratching I remembered I uninstalled it after a couple of unsuccessful Win 10 installations.
Back in the dark Update 15.30 I reinstalled Classic Shell and have tried changing a few settings which looked like they could be the problem but all to no avail, still blacked out. Last edited by keith.evans; February 7th, 2017 at 04:23 PM. Reason: Update |

Could be a corrupted font.
Control Panel>fonts>Font Settings>restore default Reboot NO Try clearing the cache, windows will rebuild after boot;

Hi Murf.
Sadly, no joy. Performed both procedures and the result was the same both times. See attached pic... |

My titles were also looking wierd but when i uninstalled Classic shell and then rebooted it was fine. Just wanted to say thank you. There is no way i would have figured this out. Cheers

Sorry I didn't get back here to report.
I eventually found the problem to be a Windows Glass program I had installed quite some time previously so all's well now. Just a note for blankvers, I have Classic Shell installed and it doesn't corrupt anything for me. I tried uninstalling it but it didn't change anything so I reinstalled it. If it did it for you, great! |
