The font in Firefox is wrong and I do not know how to fix it (screen capture included).

Link to screen capture: https://imgur.com/a/nHU386r I tried going into the settings to fix this. While this fixed the font for most of the content, some content, as well as the bulk of the actual font used by Firefox itself, is this font that I cannot for the life of me figure out how to change. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it to no avail even, which is why some parts look like I used it and others not. If any of you have ever had to deal with this issue or know how to solve it, thank you very very very much. Bonus points if I can actively choose which font to use there whenever I wish.

Wow, that's hideous.

It is not easy to change the font in the toolbar area: Firefox tries to follow your Windows settings. That can be overridden using custom style rules in a userChrome.css file. If that doesn't mean anything to you, most likely, you haven't intentionally customized the Firefox user interface, but you could take a look in these two areas just in case:

(1) Optional chrome folder

Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either

  • "3-bar" menu button > "?" Help > Troubleshooting Information
  • (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
  • type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter

In the first table on the page, on the Profile Folder row, click the "Open Folder" button. This should launch a new window listing various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

This is your profile folder. Can you find a folder named chrome here?

If No, skip to #2

Double-click into the chrome folder. Do you have a userChrome.css file in here? (Note: Windows commonly hides the .css extension, so if you find a userChrome file, that's probably the same thing.)

If No, skip to #2

Any idea where this file came from? You can hide it from Firefox by temporarily changing its name, or you could open it in a text editor to see what it does.

(2) Program folder Autoconfig file

Check for alien script files in these locations (varies for 32-bit / 64-bit, you likely do not have both):

  • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref
  • C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref

Caution: Do not double-click script files! The default action for a script file it to execute as a Windows system script. (Typically this would just not work, but why risk it.)

Make sure Windows is showing hidden files: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/14201/windows-show-hidden-files

A file named channel-prefs.js is normal. Any other file in this folder is suspicious. Remove any such files to a neutral location for further analysis at your leisure.

Anything there?
