Just upgraded from 18.04 to 20.04... now have a major problem... ALL programs display text just fine, but the desktop and system programs/files & the like have word squares instead of text.

After searching, it appears to be a font selected that I don't have, but why did the upgrade do this? And, I have plenty of fonts!!

Of course, cannot read anything to see what is what, can't even upload screen shot as file selection box is all word squares!

I use Krusader as file manager, so can get to location(s) to change settings, but have NO idea where to start.

Also just now discovered that SMPlayer will not show the video, audio is ok. Parole Media Player and Videos will play both video and audio, but have the word squares instead of text.

Sigh.
