Why does it matter?
- The affected texts are difficult to read with the font being smaller.
- Selecting text in the file properties dialogue does not work well. One needs to place their cursor further to the right (or left) than the displayed.
- It looks bad.

Change your ‘language for non-Unicode programs’ to ‘Chinese (Simplified, China)’, and reboot your computer.
