Change the theme and then go back to your old theme. For exsample if you have xp change the theme to windows classic then go back to royale, if you had vista change the theme to windows classic then go back to aero. Hope this Helps

Hi floriancod.
I am having the exact some problem, uninstalled Left4Dead and all my letter's got bold. Tried Right-click "desktop" Properties> Appearance > and fixxing it from there, nothing worked =/ My letters are still bold. How did you fix this problem? =)

I Got This From Some Website, It Worked For Me.

[Problem] Malware in the Skidrow release.  The uninstaller (skidrow release), takes a very long time to finish and may stop responding.  Afterward (or during) removal, system fonts become different.  Bold and italic fonts appear where they should be normal.
[Solution] If you already uninstalled:
The installer this group made registers some fonts (in Left 4 Dead\platform\vgui\fonts) with windows that it shouldn't, causing your original fonts to be unregistered (but not deleted).  The originals should still be in WINDOWS\Fonts, they're just not active.  Move them out of the folder and then back again to re-register them:
ARIALN.TTF  arialbd.ttf  lucon.ttf    tahoma.ttf  trebuc.ttf
arial.ttf   cour.ttf     marlett.ttf  times.ttf   verdana.ttf
If you are about to uninstall:
Make a backup of FONTS folder in your WINDOWS folder before Left 4 Dead uninstall.
After uninstall, move the fonts back to instal them. Click yes. Then restart pc.
