This is a common problem with SNAPs.

To fix it we need to clear the font cache.

Easy and automated:

fc-cache -r

and/or manually delete fontconfig cache directory in home:

rm ~/.cache/fontconfig/*

And possibly the system cache too:

sudo rm -f /var/cache/fontconfig/*

Hi there,

I have tried it. I have clean installation of Manjaro, For the moment the only screen where is see it is Opera when I try to download a file. I have installed only opera from snap and for the moment i have no new apps installed.

Any ideas where else the problem can be?
Thank you in advance
