MATLAB: Does MATLAB Toolstrip display garbled text

MATLAB

I have just did a fresh installation of MATLAB R2018a.
However, as I run the program, the Toolstrip remains full of special characters and thus unreadable.
The English translation of this garbled text appears as I scroll upon the buttons.

Best Answer

MATLAB reads the user locale and system locale on Windows platforms. When the user locale and system locale are not of the same values, you might observe garbled text or incorrectly displayed characters in MATLAB.
To resolve this issue:
1.In MATLAB, verify that you have both the "user locale" and "system locale" set to the same settings:
>> feature locale
If they are different, change them by following the instruction in this documentation page:

2. Make sure that you do not have any corrupted fonts
