What is strange is that the font only display like that when clicking the properties of a program, Task Mgr,  file, etc. And on the nortons tool bar, OTL, etc.

On the tutorial here you can see how to change the font settings

 

what I want you to do is to check the 7 c) look at the options where the Font box is enabled and confirm if in your case is set to Segoe UI like on the image.

It states that the update is already installed on this computer. So I went back and changed as you requested manually. Still the same issue.  :(
