Applications Windows 8 click right notification shows rectangles

Original title: Windows 8 icons do not show

When I click with the right button on any item in the start menu in Windows 8, a tile bar downstairs as usual is to display the options. But the icons of these options appear correctly, they show only that the rectangles.

Hi Mohammed,

This problem may occur if a system "Segoe UI symbol" font is missing or damaged.

This font contains several metro icons that are displayed in the places mentioned above, if the police gets removed from Windows 8, or if the police are corrupt, then Windows 8 start displays these weird instead of the icons of metro characters because Windows cannot find the necessary to show icons.

If you have access to another computer in Windows 8, you can copy "Segoe UI symbol" makes it and paste the fonts on your computer Windows 8. You just type the fonts in the dialog box RUN, then press on Enter. It will open the fonts folder. Scroll down and you will see fonts "Segoe UI regular symbol" in the list. Do a right click on the police and select copy, then you can paste the font file into your USB key. After that, copy the file of fonts in your system to Windows 8.

Please let us know about the status of this issue.

  • Drop-down menus does not open. Click right box will not appear.

    Hello!

    Yesterday, I was working on the Wix site. I noticed that when I tried to do a right click to copy and paste text box never showed up. I realized then, on other sites, in the drop down menus would not open (as the ones where you select your State, etc.). I can't turn on the bar menu at the top of Firefox with the ALT key, but when I click Tools or anything else, the box does not fall down. Same thing for my bookmarks and menu of frequently used buttons. My right click works fine when I'm not online. I really like to use Firefox and hope that there is a better solution than to switch to a different browser. I use Firefox at work and it's there.

    Please let me know if you need more information.

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables certain parameters, disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    • In previous versions of Firefox, click on the Firefox button in the upper left of the Firefox window and click help (or click on help in the Menu bar, if you do not have a Firefox button) and click on restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. Please follow the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.
